Lessons of Courage and Fear

In my life I’ve known Courage.

We met when I started overcoming my fears.

Nowadays Courage is me refusing to be scared.

I find Courage when I find fear.

In my life I’ve know Fear.

We met when I got scared.

These days Fear is me being afraid.

Fear finds me when I slip up.

I’ve learned that Courage and Fear are different-

When Courage tells me to keep going,

Fear says Stop right there.

Usually I listen to Courage

I wish courage came out more often.

I wish Fear went missing for good
