Fear

Do you fear flickering candles
Below the smiles of saints?

Do you fear the wrath of a being
You cannot see
But imagine you feel?

Do you pray to him?
Waiting for him to lift you out
Of this gutter
Called life?

Does the music that comes to you
In your dreams
Make you quiver
In fear?

Or does it raise you
To a new level 
Of ecstasy?
