Here in the moment

greatest fears revealed,

the body stunned

almost motionless

frozen in time.

Seems a thought

brought this fury

in the mind.

Seems everything mattered

when suddenly

no recourse

is available

only the pit in the stomach

that quiet

monster of pain.

Second guess ourselves

now, again, always

a wandering soul

lost searching

a lasting memory

forbidden fears,

always that scrutiny

steals peace of mind.

Seems stability

takes a sabbatical.
