I once had no fears
None at all
And then when
I had some.
To my surprise
I grew to like both
Scared or brave
Without them.
The thrill of fear
Thought I'd never admit it
The thrill of fear
Now greatly enjoyed with courage.
When I once was
Untouchable
Innocence roared
Still amazes.
When I once was
Innocent
It's still here
But in different places.
Neurosis
Only
Attaches
Itself to
Fertile
Ground
Where it can flourish.
The thrill of fear
Thought I'd never admit it
The thrill of fear
Now greatly enjoyed with courage.
When I once was
Fearless
Innocence roared
Still amazes.
Untouchable
Innocence
It's still here
But in different places.
Fear is a powerful drug
Overcome it and
You think that you can do
Anything!
Should I
Save myself
For later
Or generously give?
Fear of
Losing
Energy
Is draining.
It locks up your chest
Shuts down the heart
Miserly
And stingy
Let's open up share!
When I once was
Fearless
Innocence roared
Still amazes.
Untouchable
Innocence
It's still here
But in different places.
