Have No Fear Poem by Göran Gustafsson

I wrote you a letter, I wrote it so kind
I rang you a long distance call
I whispered words of love in your ear
And cried when the thunders roar
So listen, my dear, no reason to fear
When I come and knock on your door

I walked in the desert of seven dead forests
I crawled through the dirt and despair
I dug me a tunnel without any gear
And pierced through your maiden floor
So listen, my dear, no reason to fear
When I lie on your bedroom shore

I rolled down your limbless liquid bed
I swayed in the waves of the sea
I promised to buy you a singin' bird
And knew you're the one I adore
But hush, little sweetie, don't say a word
When I leave you to fight in my war

When the last of leaves has lost its tree
The lemon fruit is left for me
And far into sundown's silent spheres
The bird is gone and sings no more
But listen, my dear, no reason for tears
We shall meet on that beautiful shore
