FEAR
Hold me like a teardrop,
Threatening to bring to light,
All my weakness and frustration
And I will call you strong,
Test me like all the wrong things,
Imbue in me all the doubts and insecurities,
I will keep them bottled up before I drink,
I know they age like fine wine,
Threaten to leave me,
Spark all my issues with abandonment,
I will show you the amount of work I did,
To prove to the world I didn’t need it
Talk me down like really terrible bouts of anxiety,
And if calm waters run deep,
Find a way to dive into it,
Pick up all the things that sink to the bottom,
I’ll dress you in what I think is beautiful,
Douse you in every flavour attractive,
If we all deserve some love,
How do I mutate this fear into affection?
Hold me because no one is there to,
And when I feel these things bubble up,
Know that I am strong enough,
To do things you are afraid to,
