Fear of Heights
For many years
my fear of heights
had kept me
on the floor
I never thought
anxiety
could be
an open door
A tear fell down
for every step
but every step
I took
Was also filled
with focus
on a certain
holy book
I read
the word of God
loudly
in my head
Quoting
every word
I could recall
in red
The next time up
I worried
but something
in me knew
There would be
no trembling fear
I’d just
enjoy the view
