Coward.
A miniscule word of only six letters,
Yet it engulfs my entire being.
Like a roiling pool of black tar,
I drown in its merciless depths,
The ghastly, thick liquid
Forcing its way down my throat,
Suffocating me of my air of confidence.
And try as I might
To fight back this menace,
My body and mind give in to its embrace,
And I lie suspended in the void of black.
But my heart still beats its rhythm,
And as long as it continues pulsing,
There is still hope,
That I can pull myself free
From this prison that holds me down.
This dense black sea of fear.
