Challenge
Write about your worst fear. Something that runs chills down your spine, stops your heart or accelerates it, makes you tremble in fear or just freezes your body and mind. Poetry preferred but prose is acceptable too.
Drowning...
Admiring the beauty before me
Stumbling at water's edge
She grabs me with the
Strength of a thousand men
I find myself in a torrent
Of thoughts and try to reason
With the conscious awareness I have
Working furiously to
Orientate myself and gain control
I am in her possession and
She refuses to relinquish her hold
Pulling me under as I weaken
My lungs fill, but not with the
Breath I so dearly need
Finally, I succumb to her
She carries me away
As I drift into unconsciousness.
