I fear only one - Who am I?
$begingroup$
The cave has me, the wind hasn't
The stories, the pirates, the demons, the lands...
All nothing if it isn't me
The masterworks of science revolve 'bout me
You'll all be blind if it ain't me
The rock has me, the sun hasn't
But still
I fear only one
The one that doesn't let me go.
Tell me - who am I?

Is this
The earth?
This fits all lines of the poem - wind and sun don't have this, rock and cave do. None of the stuff mentioned in lines 2-5 could exist without it.
As for the last part,
Gravity hold the earth together and doesn't let go.

It's a good answer, but I was thinking of something else - something which is not a thing
