Oceans Of Fear

It's waters cause me grief,
its chilling depths alarming.
The whirlpool of my problems ,
lay out before me in an array of mist.

Rough, so rough.
Jumbling about in the waves,
they come back, to haunt me,
ever present once more.

Suddenly,there is calm,
the waves losing their motion,
enjoying the serenity,
I lower my guard.

And when the fears overcome,
I know I am gong to lose.
This is one battle that will leave me forever scarred
