My fear stood tall a tower built of stone
A monument to battles I had known
Its shadow fell across my aching bone
A cold reminder I was still alone
But then your touch dismantled it with grace
Each trembling brick undone in its own place
The wall fell quiet under your embrace
And fear grew soft within your tender space
You held my shaking heart the way daybreak
Holds fragile dew too precious to forsake
Your warmth helped every frightened part awake
And turned the trembling into something lake
So touch my fear whenever nights appear
When shadows whisper louder in my ear
For in your hands the toughest ghosts draw near—
Only to fall because your love is clear
