Our Close Fiend

quiet happy on this side
fear a brutal blanket
that covers predicted loss
without fear would we even strive
or meekly live this life
Heroes know fear
cowards know nothing else
Without fear the monsters 
never noticed
and love forever stained
Raise a class of cheer
For the champion of the world
our closest friend our fear
