I Will Not Fear the Darkness

Shall I pass the phantom's test? Find solace and peace in the belly of my bed? I will not fear the darkness Black as ravens head Nor the shadows that watch and wait While I nestle in my bed No longer fear the cold breath, winter chill Or the whispers of death and ill will My fears, blooming as beauty of youth From where are their roots?
