Courage is

when you

decide

to take the next step

over the abyss

of your fears and doubts,

standing tall

knowing

it might break you again,

but hoping

it won’t.

    Haven't quite put my head down yet...
    Sturdy definition, Iva. Everyone's reaction in such a situation is different..... Hope for me didn't enter the equation - the dynamic was self talk and the effort required to push through.

    so true
    yet courage is also, bravely
    sharing that wisdom
    which curated that bridge
    to your survival
    and for that, I thank you
    kind poet, stay strong!

      You have defined my life of 63 years,
      In just very few words so precisely,
      Amazed by your meaningful writing,
      Thanks as you have told the truth!

        You are so welcome 😊 That was my life at 38 😉
