Why Am I Not Afraid

Why am I not afraid? To no one do I expect to receive aid To no one is my mind or body a slave or a maid To no one do I run to when I believe the Lord is not answering when I pray Why am I not afraid ? To no one do I turn to when I feel my life is a dismay To no one do I blame when I have been left betrayed To no one do I stop trusting and start to trust when I have been misled I am not afraid because I am me I am not afraid because I have remained me My heart is free My eyes can see That my life is full of glee So by the beach I sit and see The layers and layers of water flowing widely and peacefully into the sea I am me, I am free Why should I be afraid? shamsa@ www.vikombeviwilivyakahawa.wordpress.com
