I'm scared.

I mean, really scared. A deep, deep fear.

I've only felt this way a few times in my life. And this one is probably stronger than the rest. My groin has turned to ice, my heart is beating fast, and I can't feel my nose.

Were I Christian, or Jewish, or whatever, I'd be praying to whatever g(G)od(s) I believe in. Since I'm not, I can only turn to myself and those I hold dear.
