Babatunde T Ogunsiku Poet Free verse

I Am Not Afraid

I am not afraid of lack, 
Because I know I enter excess! 
I am not afraid of not being loved back with the venom that I love, 
Because I know I am genuinely loved! 
I am not afraid of failure, 
Because I know that I am a success story! 
I am not afraid to take the steps, 
Because I have an understanding of the end! 
I am not afraid to lose, 
Because I know I gain more! 
I am not afraid of death, 
Because I know I live forever!

Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
