Matter of Fact

I do a courageous thing every day.
As most of us do,
I live, I love as if living wasn't born in me.
Gingerly going on my way.
I must shine all of the time.
Matter of fact is, I must stay i can not sway.
Or be afraid to live.
I can not be even a little shy.
There's a compass in my MIND which
Points the way.
I have ample breaths to breathe.
That's the matter of fact in  me.
