I look away when I'm afraid,
Turn the cheek when I'm betrayed,
I hold it in when anger swells,
Trapped inside my self-imposed hell,
I hide away my hidden fears,
And wipe away departed tears,
I need to calm my anguished self,
And set my sorrows on a shelf,
The time has come to rise and fight,
To take a stand and set things right,
Cast away my dreadful doubts,
To find a way to let it out.
A beautiful write about emotion. Fear is clearly drawn and the drive to overcome it.. 10
