Fear

a monstrous shadow
looms large ahead,
a screeching sound
pierces my head;
I run away
from monsters
that rule my life,
only to be chased
and run over
in fright;
until I stop and
look in the eye,
in faith and love,
peace always in sight;
it is most hard
to stay in the fight,
but all is overcome,
in a new-found Light.
