Lamentations in a valley... FEAR?

                                                                                    "Even though I walk
                                                                                       through the valley
                                                                                   of the shadow of death
                                                                                       I will fear no evil..."
                                                                                 



                                                                                          i won't call it fear...
                                                                                                
                                                                                                       for
                                                                                           every step reveals
                                                                                             something new
                                                                                             every decision
                                                                                             something true
                                                                                            and every action
                                                                                      something unmistakable

                                                                                           i won't call it fear...
                                                                                                     failing
                                                                                                   even after
                                                                                                    realizing
                                                                                               that this isn't that
                                                                                              and here isn't there
                                                                                                        and i
                                                                                                      can fight
                                                                                                         or i
                                                                                                     can whine
                                                                                                         but i
                                                                                                 don't have time
                                                                                               within this rhyme
                                                                                                   to decipher
                                                                                                     or decide

                                                                                                         still...
                                                                                               i won't call it fear
                                                                   
                                                                                                         fate
                                                                                         eventually allows release
                                                                                              so instead of afraid
                                                                                              love has been made
                                                                                              manifest before me,
                                                                                             writing the next verse
                                                                                                       in a song
                                                                                                        which is
                                                                                                        my story.

                                                                                                         hence,
                                                                                              i won't call it fear.

                                                                                                     i'll just say...
                                                                                                     i'm a tad bit
                                                                                                    overwhelmed
                                                                                            and i'm okay with that.
