O Fear

You made me run away
from those who loved me anyway.
You pushed me down into the vanity,
blindfolded me from every reality.

I thought I wasn't good enough.
You made my existence so tough.
O fear, now I realize, it was all a bluff,
and you have already played enough.

I lost many opportunities,
and now that I am sure of my priorities,
I believe I will break through
as life always gives a next chance to you.

Remember to rise up, and it's okay to fall.
This world around you can't define you at all.
Be courageous, have an ambition.
Be ready to go beyond every limitation.

Building a wall of fear
will keep you in the dark forever,
keeping you unaware of
what you are capable of.

I like this poem because it seems to speak to a place in life that many people have been, myself included. The lines "You made my existence so tough.
O fear, now I realize, it was all a bluff," <-is like when all the glitter disappears and you can see the raw facts of people's nature and the real equation, so good job Lady Anisha.

Thank you, Eric. Yes, fear usually keeps us away from our desires. It makes us doubt our own ability, and we spend our whole life thinking that we are not good enough, but the moment we decide to overcome it, we realize what we are capable of and how easy it is to break all the barriers.
