Love or Fear (#1)

Love or fear
am I there or here
am I far or near
am I the lion, or the deer

The answers
I do not know
so I learn tricks and talents
all for show

Fake kisses
that I blow
for happiness
I must sew

In that quest,
I am still lost
like a sports car
in northern frost

Through trials and tribulations
and war between nations
I must master patience
and accept my limitations

Love or Fear

To be held close

or kept near

Love or fear

Will people cry

Or will they cheer

When you finally rest

After all these years.
