Whenever the fear comes

My heart sinks.

Taking away

What could be.

But my heart

Wants to beat.

My heart yearns to do

What it is meant to do.

Who won’t I meet

Because I give in

to the fear?

What chances won’t I take

Because I give in

to the fear?

Let’s not deny ourselves

The adventures that can come.

Let’s not deny ourselves

the things we can learn,

the people we can meet,

the impact we can have.

We owe it to ourselves.

And we owe it to the people

Who need to read

What our heart wants to write.
