Fear

The one thing that contains us is…

FEAR

To others it’s a distressing emotion aroused by impending danger,

Whether the threat is real or imagined.

But to me …

It’s like one of those prized fish at the street fair.

I’m the golden fish that swims in the water of my peace and tranquility contained in my safety zoned bag,

Until someone comes along and shakes my bag of peace,

Shaking it till a hole employs in my safety zone leaking out the peace that surrounded me.

As my safe place continues to shake,

More holes continue to break.

Till I suffocate in the place that made me feel safe.

Well once that happens...You'll have to adapt to the new conditions, and be born again, realizing that maybe you'll need to find a different place. Nicely done
