Love v. Fear - 8-24-11

Life is a struggle

With a heavy load

Sometimes too heavy

And you tumble far below

Some are there to help you

Some come to watch you fall



There are those who enter

And the lights get brighter

The music gets richer

The load gets lighter

The struggles seem lessened

Your heart is warmed by love



If love is good

The heart knows no fear

The world is open

Everything is possible

When love is lost

Your heart learns fear



Fear is ever powerful

Hard to reveal, Hard to relinquish

The struggles get harder

The load gets heavier

The lights dimmer

The music softer



Numb is a strong feeling

It takes over

When a body can’t carry the load

When a body can’t feel the fear

When the world is too much

The mind numbs the body



When love comes back

Can it be stronger than fear?

Can it overcome the fear?

Love is strong

But how strong?

Who has the answers?



Time tells all

Time tells the strength beneath

The strength of ties, of love, of loss

Time

Time

Time
