fears

...scared
and I am all the way over here
incapable
powerless
useless
I wish I could just hold you tight
like the child that you are
but never want to admit,
always wanting to be strong
always brave
always the one to count on,
run my fingers through your hair
and whisper soft words into your ear
quenching your fears,
"it will be all right," "you will be fine,"
make you feel safe in my arms.
Let yourself go,
abandon your high expectations
of yourself
with me,
It is all right to be scared
sometimes.
You will never seem weak
in my eyes.
This is one of those times
when I would leave behind
for you
anything
everything
If I only knew
it could be
