which side

a choice ~ fear or love

on the one side of each you - is fear
the very brashness of fear can paralyze
fear sneaks into inner consciousness
lovelessly stealthily putting you to task
without a single invitation or welcome
fear projects no rules of a fair conduct
fear will do anything to conquer you

on the other side of each you - is love
the very essence of love is pure sweetness
love moves into your inner consciousness
lovingly and openly healing your heart
love needs your invitation and welcome
love uses only love’s rules of fair conduct
love uses only love’s gentleness to conquer

fear on one side - love on the other side
you are positioned between love and fear
toward which side do you decide to move
every minute provides you with a choice
as to how you decide to pursue your way
by heart-breaking jabs of a chilling fear
or - by love’s warm heart-caressing touch
