Fear
Everyone has fears. And that's normal. But fear is sometimes overwhelming and can create challenges for people. Hopefully, in time we are able to conquer those fears and be free to live a joyous life.
Fear
By Michelle Morris

Fear is at home in the darkness -
Wanting you to stay afraid and alone.
As long as you allow it to embrace you;
You'll never feel like you're safe at home...
Or in yourself...
Or in your life...
Constant doubt and insecurity,
Will follow you about.
You need to take a stand;
Step into the light.
One step at a time -
Knowing that it will be alright.
One step at a time until you find,
You are free at last;
Time to shine...
To be you...
To be here...
To be content with being...
To be trusting and joyful...
Fear is afraid of the light -
It won't chase you there.
You're free now.
You can breathe now.
Easily.
You can live now.
Joyously.
