Too much worry with one's undesired fear
are destructive mental habits, it's sure
to deplete energy; what thought to do
just do, shouldn't panic, stay away from fear.
Don't allow mind to think negative view;
Some manage to stay happy, when go through
problems in life as they hope for the best;
somehow they control fear, do what to do.
They're not afraid of fear, they don't feel stressed;
they know fear kills more than disease; they're blessed
with faith they pray that helps them to endure
their suffering; they are never depressed.
They know hope keeps alive, helps to look for
ways to have peace, success while shunning fear.

An introvert since I was a young child,
I am tranquil quiet and never wild;
never thinking it would be an asset,
so with my quietus- I have reconciled.
