Breathe through it...

Everyone is trapped by fear.
But only some can fight it.
Those that do, know Life through living,
The rest hide deep inside it.

We crawl into our complacency
To abide each "dismal" day.
We convince ourselves to be comfortable,
So we'll know no other way.

We often feel Life will come to us,
But the truth is, Life won't care.
If you don't TAKE life, it can easily drown you...
And ignore your gasps for air.

So believe it or not, the key, then, is fear.
For it shows you what must be done.
And if you can face it, and are willing to TRY,
Then the battle is already won.

Everyone is trapped by fear.
But only some can fight it.
Those that do, know Life through living,
I will no longer hide deep inside it.
