Fear of Life

Fear of Life
I stare at the blank page, trying to write the thousand and one thoughts running through my mind;
as i think to myself, about all that was, all that is and all that will be;
fear takes over my senses, clouding my thoughts, fear of the unknown, fear of life;
sometimes i want to run away from this mad world, sometimes i wish i could do things differently, sometimes i wonder about a lot of things that i could have done, sometimes i worry i might be thinking too much;
i feel like floating in a deep dark void, eaten away from the insides, ripped and bleeding, desperately clinging on to life;
exhausted and tired, giving up (on life) seems so easy, i close my eyes and drift off into darkness;
