Survival Is Not Frivolity

Mere faith in oneself
is not enough to build strength,
confidence makes one thrive;
leave all failures on the shelf!
Fear makes a liar shrive,
he's afraid of a wavelength!

Survival is not frivolity,
rather a required amenity
to instill confidence in us;
take grit and defy doubts!

Plan ahead your long-dreamed journey, 
either in outer space or on high seas;
captains are never afraid of dangers:
how thrilling can be a new discovery! 

Do I have an unabating regret to promptly confess?
It lies in this wincing and baffled soul so restless!
Adventure should have evinced my true excitement;
did anyone perceive the eagerness that wasn't silent?
