Fear and Faith

I have been posting on the other forums here and just found there is a poetry one. I scratched this one down while I was bored in class, haven't had time to refine it. I love to write, so here is my debut

Fear and Faith

Fear ruins
It paralyzes the strongest
and owns the weakest
Controlling, conniving, cruel
Frozen in place
With a word, a feeling
Something deep inside
There is fear in us all

It can be defeated
We can prevail, if we know how
For faith is available to all
If it is desired
A faith in anything greater
Greater than ourselves
It will replace fear
Bringing movement to the paralyzed
Power to the weak and strong alike
We can own fear, before it takes over our lives
And that is the power
Of fear and of faith

"We can own fear before it takes over our lives and that is the power."
