FEAR

Uncontrollable, crippling sensation
Weakening you from the inside out
And gets you unable to breathe as a result of being choked

It gets you visibly shaken to your root
Afraid and unsure of the unknown
Transforming you into a victim of its ruthless might

It will totally control every aspect of your life once you give in each time until you're unable to speak up, open up, or express yourself

More painful than a snake bite
More disastrous than an earthquake
More deadly than poison
I call it a silent killer because it exerts its effect from within and affects your external self
It works in shadows, without anyone noticing
Oh, how vicious you are, fear.
