A Love Song To My Fear

At first I was confused (and unsettled) by this,
thinking the poet was speaking to a lover.
I understood when I saw the title at the end.
I choked up, moved by the genius of it.
It seems to address the longing
so many of us carry around with us.
A place where our self rejection,
failures and shortcomings disappear.

"wrapped in grace, I eat my fill"
(and don't gain weight I think ironically)

Kidding aside, its a masterful rewrite.
"I am held"
kastilwell
