Fear

Fear is a funny thing
When you fear
It’s supposed to help
To make you move
To get you to safety

But what about
The other kind?
Where you just
Stop.
And you can’t breathe.

This can’t be safe
After all, breathing
Is kinda important

But when
Things go wrong
The fear is
Suffocating

Terror clogging your veins
A heart attack
And then silence
And the music starts

You see, for me at least
Music is the escape
Away from the fear
Away from the chocking

So that means
If music is an escape
The fear has done its job
And taken me away
Fear is a funny thing
