There are things that make you come unhinged
Depends on the fears hidden within
Until
You’re confronted by one, such as spider or snake,
Deep water, a high bridge, and you start to shake.
Mostly your knees tend to get a bit nervous
You try to be strong but it’s just lip service
You’re scared, you’re anxious, but appear calm
Works for a while, then all goes wrong
Your lip starts to quiver, your face turns white
You can no longer hide your fright
Is it a phobia or fear? Either is right
Your mind is hazy, it’s on the fringe
Just thinking about it makes you cringe!
