Don't be afraid

And a poem I wrote nearly seven years ago.

Don't be afraid little child,
I know what you feel
I know what you fear
That truth is false
Cold is hot, love is naught,
That any small lapse
Will bring the collapse
Of existence crashing down,
Into the cold void.

Don't be afraid little child,
I know what you feel
I know what you fear
But these nightmares
They are just that, no more
Horrors made up my man
Withdrawals from what really is.

Don't be afraid little child,
Face the world, face it
With your fist, with all your might
I'll be beside you, around you
Grasping you from danger
No, you're mine, I won't let you fall.

Yes, I've made you suffer,
I wept in space, in truth,
If there'd been another way,
I'd have chosen it.
The Great Experiment is on,
To make gods out of filthy clay,
Consider not the worldly cost,
You'll realise its worth one day.

So don't be afraid little child,
You won't be taken,
I will keep you whole and sane
I will envy for you
I won't let anyone touch you
I called you and you're mine!
So don't be afraid, little child.
