Replace The Fear Poem by Rebecca Pepper

Replace The Fear



I won't ask you why your tears bleed
I won't ask what terrors your memory feeds
I won't ask in which way you would flee
But I will ask that you trust in me
I know what it's like to run without hope
To have all your distress tie the rope
To curl up and hold your throbbing head
All because of what others said
So I won't ask if you're okay
There's no way you would stay
Instead I'll hold your hand and kiss your lips
I'll walk side by side and hide your slips
No-one will judge your broken cries
None will badger you with what's and whys
As long as you trust that I'll protect you
We can build you up strong and true
Because you're not broken my dear
No, we just have to find a love to replace the fear

Very nice, Rebecca, a relevant plea to replace fear with trust, despair with hope... Nice.
