Fear is the snake – v2

Fear is the bile, the poison,
the snake, the beast, our enemy,
sapping our joy, love, our peace,
seizing every opportunity, usurping,
attacking every chink in our armor.
 
Death, Satan, the same, certain, stalking,
following us, silent, watching, present,
when we let down our guard, pouncing,
pulling us under the waters, drowning,
stealing our strength, no air, no breath.
 
Despair, fear, loss, conforming,
walking in the pit, in the valley,
so far from our path, the light,
the living waters, our journey,
our calling, our purpose, our way.
