Fear
Fear is my anchor yet it is my float,
It's pulling me under yet it's kept me above shore,
Fear is keeping me from living the life that my heart desires,
But it's keeping me alive.
It's drowning my soul and keeping my body strong and alert.
But in order for me to move on, in order for to live as I should,
In order for me to be free I have to let fear go and I see that now.
I have to let myself drown,
Because a caterpillar has to die before it can turn into a butterfly and tour the skies.
