When in fear we live


Store your stories,
of days filled with belief.
Remember those memories,
not tarred by grief.
Days when naive faith in fairies
would offer solace and relief.

Moments, when a stranger’s presence
ensued a calm smile.
Without alerting your defense,
or making you agile.

Times, when with a  touch,
 you were with safety blessed.
When with fear, your fists didn't clutch,
or about your dress, you fussed.

Days, when trust came easy,
and safety was found in a crowd.
When stares didn't make you queasy,
and when with panic you weren't cowed.

Sisters, treasure those memories, For those days are gone.
