Fear...
Fear is the nature
That is currently my mind,
For disaster shall follow
A misstep of any kind.

What is it,
Do you ask, do you know?
That causes this terror
In my mind to grow?

'Tis a hope for love,
'Tis a hope for romance,
'Tis a hope for joy,
And an honorable stance.

So I think to the future
But look to the past,
Where every wrong step
Brought disaster at last.

And I hope this is good,
But fear in my heart
That mistakes, like before,
Will cause my friends to depart.

So fear is the enemy,
But fear is my friend,
For if I boldly stepped forth
It would suddenly end...
