Fear

In the tapestry of shadows, where fear abides,

A spectral specter, where courage hides.

Phantom tendrils coil, a visceral embrace,

In the abyss of dread, where shadows chase.

A tempest of trepidation, a storm of the soul,

Where the heart beats to a timorous scroll.

Yet within the crucible of fear's caress,

Emerges a whisper, a kernel of duress.

Courage, a luminescent beacon afar,

A constellation in the dread-wrought star.

In the labyrinth of terror, a stalwart guide,

A valiant spirit, in fear's divide.

Like a phoenix rising from the ashen fray,

Courage unfurls its wings in the darkest day.

A lexicon of valor in the face of despair,

Defiant verses penned in the midnight air.

With a tapestry of words, courage is woven,

A symphony of strength, a valor proven.

In the alchemy of fear, a metamorphosis,

A transcendence, a testament to fortitude's bliss.

Fear may cast its daunting shadow's pall,

Yet courage, a sovereign, shall never fall.

In the odyssey of dread, where shadows loom,

Courage blooms, a perennial bloom.
