While In Fear: The Courage to Try Poem
Without fear, that might have been me...
All I’m saying is that could’ve been me.
That could have been me but it wasn’t.
The call for an opportunity was incoming.
I had two options: either accept it or decline it.
But like a fool, I allowed it to run its course.
The fuss over my fidgets is that I never kickoff.
I am first come, first served for invisibility.
The upsell from fear is seclusion on the undercard.
My courage could use cardio.
But the treadmill would give me a run that’s uncomfy.
My legs cramp before I can attempt to sprint.
Only if I could’ve only if I would’ve only if I should’ve.
Maybe it’s my fault for allowing it to happen.
Instead of protecting my dreams.
I became neglectful, shifting my eyes to perceive everyone else as special.
Rolling out the red carpet for the mention of a miscellaneous name.
Worshiping the acclaimed society has already placed its favorites on a pedestal.
Which proves that I will never be successful, I’ll never reach that level.
There is always someone who’s tasteless.
When called upon to taste test my bare minimum.
If I minicammed the bumping of my rough edges.
I could smooth out the thumping and learn something.
Pulling yes out of the water before it shrivels.
Would make my follow through crystal clear.
