A Friend So Dear
Lurking just beneath the surface
I bubble up when you most need me
You'd love to think I'm worthless
Then you're glad there's what to feed me
I assume the shape of motivation
When you need to be ambitious
Though I can make you shake all over
Thanks to me, you realize your wishes
Without me you'd never make it
Through life's thorns and brambles
I'm there to push you when you need
To take big risks and gambles
Please welcome me when I appear
Perhaps by now it's crystal-clear
~ My name is fear
