“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

'So I finally embrace the vulnerability
That comes with accepting the possibility'..
(one feet, after another
two steps, further
for each slip or trip;
our spine
held, tight and unwaveringly
erect
we forge
our fears, in-to
those tangible dreams
our lives, will be
remembered for
or not...
still, we'd have
at least
flipped, our coin of fate
and seen
for ourselves, what this whole
life thing, is all about)
thanks for sharing
Omg that is beautiful!!! Thank you!
