Dust kissed the sole of my feet
as I trod upon the ground valiantly
A herculean task was set before me
I peered into my heart
and courage was visible
I peeked at a mirror
and I saw a fidgeting image
Whose image was it?
I battled in a bottle
Filled with mixture of fear and courage
I had to sieve
Or subdue one for the other
But every attempt to implement
the element of decisiveness
Left me sitting on a fence.
The battle called unto me
When I refused to confront
It drew nigh
Barking like a dog
Afflicted with insanity
I was humming
Yes I was
Tension at attention
But fear thrown in detention.
Courage assaulted fear within me
I pulled away from despair
I repaired the damaged faith
by damaging self-pity
Joy was ignited
when worries were switched off
My soul freed
My body freed
I had won the greatest battle
I won myself to be myself.
I really like the style and content of your blog. Great job. It will do you a lot of good to visit and follow the Legalnaija blawg where we inform Nigerians about their civil rights, duties and obligations under the law.
