Comfort Zone

“The world outside is scary” says my comfort zone

So I choose to do nothing and stare at my phone

Constantly torn between wanting to try something

And thinking “What’s the point? It’ll amount to nothing.”

 

I tell myself that I want nothing, that I’m being humble

But by ignoring my wants, it merely causes me trouble

When I dive into that feeling, I finally see

That it is nothing but the fear of breaking free!

 

Ignoring all the signs, faking that I’m fine

But I’ve had enough, I think now’s the time

Time to finally let go of all the doubts

And to pull myself out of this pathetic drought

 

When I walk past that fear, I finally feel

That the world is ready to make a fair deal

For those who want to do something worthwhile

The world embraces all their ideas with a smile!

 

So I finally embrace the vulnerability

That comes with accepting the possibility

That the world is not that bad after all

And I am allowed to break down my own walls
