Call for Courage

There is always fear
To cloud my mind

The miserable darkness
Hiding deep in my head

Ready to leap out
If I offer a feeding hand

After being consumed
Having lost my guiding light
The golden string to follow

I curl around my fears

And I shout to my courage
- Please, don’t leave me!

There is no way
To lighten this burden

But to let you carry half,
Please, even half of it.
