Poetry, Quotes, and Ramblings

Fear

That feeling that grips you like a fist.

It makes you shiver,

but sweat at the same time.

It stops from doing what you want.

You ache so badly to tell them you like them,

or go on a ride,

or have fun.

You start to doubt everything you do.

You fight, of course.

But can that be enough? 

You fight and struggle,

and sometimes, you must forget your fear;

and do what you want anyway.

You see, courage isn't not having any fear. 

It's having that fear,

and acknowledging it,

but fighting anyway.
