Fear

 

I was afraid of being myself,

Of saying what I truly need,

What is good for me,

What my soul needs,

And I ignored myself,

I ignored my true self,

I ignored my true nature,

Because I was afraid,

I was afraid of hurting others,

And so many times I hurt myself,

I was afraid of crashing others,

And so many times I crashed myself

Until one day I stopped,

Because I have a mission

To live,

I have a mission

To care,

I have a mission

To love

Myself

And others,

I have a mission

To help

Myself

And others,

And by putting myself first,

I am closing the gate

From this fear,

I am closing the gate

From this dark destructive violent force

That used to live within me,

I am opening a new gate

For new nourishing,

Healing,

Supportive

Devine force

To come

And protect me.
