Frightening

Sometimes i get so scared that my hands shake and i slip into a state of euphoria ....its like that deafening fear that cripples all of your senses yet somehow you're still able to function.

It happens mostly when i stand up in front of people and speak or say something that maybe i shouldn't have.
I remember when i was arrested for possession of marijuana . We were at a club in Durban late one saturday night . My best friend thought it would be cool if we organized two joints , one for each of us . I was against it but i lent him the money . Anyway we ended up smoking one between the two of us . We had just finished when a police van drove passed us . I told my mate " you had better chuck that roach because those cops are gonna come back this way " he didn't believe me and sure enough back they came and pulled up right next to us .

He threw the joint on the ground next to us . Later we would learn that any drugs found within 1,5m of a person counts as possession.

Long story short , we ended up being thrown in the back of the van . I had been trying my best to talk to the officer and try to get out of this one . Normally i can sweet talk my way out of anything . Not this time ....i was high of my ass , pumped with adrenaline and basically scared shitless .

We didn't get charged. The cop just wanted to scare us so that we wouldn't ever  do it again. But im not thankful , he was the nastiest motherfucker i have ever come across . No compassion at all ! i know we were in the wrong but still at least have some sense of basic human to human compassion .

Every time i see a cop car i shit myself .....literally
