Immobilized

It actually has no face. Even if it has one, its like a face in the dark, a face you cannot recognize. Its hidden in the shadows...

Even though it has no direct relation with you, it still creates some kind of mini storm in your heart, and gives a new kind of vague feeling, which is definitely not enjoyed by anyone. Gives a feeling of fear, a feeling of being followed by that unknown face in the dark.

As if you've done trying fighting with it anymore. The more you fight the stronger it becomes, as if it takes energy from the fear we feel.

Its a dark lane. Its all empty. You are walking alone on that lane. Suddenly you are gripped with some fear. The pace fastens, heart thumps unevenly. The face nears you.
You start running far far away from that face, glancing back to see if you've got rid of it. Face is covered with sweat. The suit is getting drenched. Everything is starting to become uneven... Its so real that you hope its unreal.

Then you wake up. Its a bad dream. But felt so many times. Its not unreal...
Its something which we have to deal with. Almost every time. At least I do. Fight it and win over it. "It" can't be right. I've to be right. My decisions are right. I cant let it rule me.

Does "it" have a name?
Yes it does..
And "it" is named as??
"It" is uncertainty.

wow!Although you are talking about something very serious here I can't help but comment on the gripping writing style and wondeful narration. Excellent work.
