Fear V/S Dream

What is it that I fear? when things are bright clear 

Maybe dreams those so dear; fail to come near 

Dream akin to concubine; Shy on eyes wide open 

Will ever be mine; like crown on head shine 

  

In midst of confusion, I lay lonely on horizon, 

To hunt down illusion, and implore inspiration 

To conquer denunciation, of dreams I so realize 

And cloaked in audacity; to sterile my fear entirely 

  

In solitude I shall cherish; the scars of past fear 

Still my dreams unbridle; like unbound lover 

Enticingly fail to ebb, vigorous in pride 

Had no doubt with glittering hope, dawn will arise
