To Walk With Courage...

"Courage is not the absence of fear, rather what we're fighting for is more important than fear"

Look yonder, the road far ahead,
With no ending to it,
How far it'll stretch,
None of us knows it.

Walking down the road,
Slowly I trod,
Past the holes,
And past the bumps,
I'd trip once or twice,
But never a thrice.

Somewhere down the road,
My tears flowed out,
Somewhere in between,
My heart is crying out.

Knowing what I know,
It is now or never,
Ignoring the pain now,
Gaining the courage forever.

Waiting for bliss's arrival,
I'd be content with happiness,
Avoiding pain's arrival,
I'd be ignoring sadness.

Gaining courage,
I'd continue walking,
Fear will not defeat me,
Even if it lives in me.

I will continue to walk with courage, for what I am fighting for is more important than the fear I'm living with.
