How silly
You’ve watched a horror film
And now you’re afraid to go toilet at night

How silly
You fall out of love
And now you’re telling yourself, you will never fall in love again

How silly
Tomorrow is our uncertainty
Then, are you not going to wake up?

How silly
Fear is all along here
Fear is real
Fear is a natural emotion
Fear is a way to alert us
Fear is a response
Then, why do we fear?

Perhaps,
Let’s see fear the other way round

Fear is a response
Fear is a way to alert us
Fear is a natural emotion
Fear is real
Fear is all along here

And tomorrow we will still wake up
Despite all uncertainty

Fear co-exists with us.
Fear wants to keep us safe
How silly
Why do we fear, fear?

Let’s be brave
Tomorrow fear will still be here
Read and understand it and dance with it.
