Bravery Hurts
A wind shift in the weather
A chill running through the spine
Frost bitten and paralyzed
From the waist up and down
To scared to make the first move
To afraid of the outcome
To fearful to ask that question
Heart pumping fast
Body frozen stiff
Face as red as a cherry
I cant i'm to afraid
Spirits reverberation
Um maybe maybe maybe
I can I am brave
(asked the question)
blank stare
emptiness
only
emptiness
now I know
the outcome of trying to hard
it hurts
it screams pains throughout my heart
sounds
deafening
the surrounding atmosphere
my only
outcome
of being
brave
the result being
bravery hurts
