The choice is yours

Life is not golden.

And fear is not lost

Strength is not grown into

And love comes not without cost.

Light does not fade...

Instead you put it out.

Confidence is not something learned,

It is simply lack of doubt

Your shoulders are not bigger

To fit the load that you must bear.

It is a will that was inside you,

You just were not aware.

Fire does not start in blaze it grows to be as such,

And the strongest of us all can be brought to tears by a soft and gentle touch.

I do not inspire you,

You cannot hear my voice,

The perception of these words.

Is a matter of your choice.

You are not alone although lonely you may feel.

No one else can guide you...

For you must make it real.

One step

Two step

Breathing in and out.

You yourself will choose what this life is all about.
