Never Fear

Yawning abyss

toes curled at the edge

staring downwards

can I fly?

Will my dreams hold me?

I leap

over the precipice

feeling the current

soar beneath my wings

I glide forth

my heart touched soft

knowing you are near.

Swooping

diving

catch me in your arms

show me I have nothing to fear

for you are not the callous one

but a lover dear.

Downward spiral

wings wrapped around

holding me safe

snapping upright

into the breeze

flying high above

but cradling me near.

One two

you will never let go

you want to show your worth.

Three four

beats on the floor

dancing

around and around.

Darling of mine

shine baby shine

never more

will you fear the morrow

for I shall always be at your side.
