Fear
It’s said we only fear 
What we can’t see;
I can’t see inside your heart,
And if I could 
It would scare me still;
It has right from the start.
At first I feared 
You wouldn’t love me,
And then I feared 
You would;
And then you loved
And I did not,
Your love for me 
Did no good;
That is until 
One day I found
I loved your love as much
As you, or me, or anything.
My life needed your touch
To help me grow within;
Without you I’d not be
All I ever wanted
Or thought I could be.
