You ignite a spark within my chest, a warmth that spreads from head to toe.
Your presence makes me feel so blessed, yet tremors of fear begin to grow.
This happiness, so pure and bright, illuminates my darkest spaces.
But shadows lurk behind the light, as joy and fear trade embraces.
I revel in the bliss you bring, my heart soars high on newfound wings.
Yet vertigo sets in mid-swing, as I contemplate fragile things.
For happiness can be so frail, a delicate and fleeting state.
What if this joy should someday fail?
The thought alone feels like cruel fate.
You make me smile, you make me laugh, you color my world in vibrant hues.
But oh, how scary is this path, where I have so much more to lose.
So here I stand at joy's threshold, caught between delight and fright.
Wondering if I dare be bold, and fully step into the light.
For now, I'll try to breathe it in, this happiness tinged with fear.
Perhaps in time, I'll let begin a joy that's strong, a love that's clear.
