THE FEAR OF LOVE
Mortal coils
Strike our symbiant being,
Bringing forth tears of blood,
Remembering long lost loves and losses.
Making us weak in our knees,
Nightmares to our dreams,
Trembling in our fear.
Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide,
Our souls laid bare in love’s brilliant light.
Screaming from the inside, whimpers issue forth.
Panic setting in, heart pounding in our ears,
Wanting to take the leap, yet frozen in fear.
Hands issue forth waiting to be taken,
But do we dare.
Do we dare take the challenge,
The challenge to conquer our greatest fear,
The fear of love.
