Fear Is a Sickness

Fear is a sickness
Yet fear is good-It
Crawls into the hearts
Of those who draw it.
Fear is the brother
And Hope is the sister
They love each other
And they walk together.
They have another sister 
Whom they call despair
Hope and despair 
Don’t walk together
Wherever went Fear
He went with either
By either;
The one whom the owner
Of the land will partner.
Fear comes first
And the owner decides
Which will be adjacent

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
