Fear

Fear holds me back
Fear strangles my dreams
Fear opposes my efforts to try
Fear lets me down

But

Fear is not always a bad thing
It is fear that cautions me
It is fear that keeps me from danger
This fear teaches me to pause and ask Why

So

Sometimes I listen to my fears
I accept that I should fear some things
I allow myself to fear some people
I know that I must fear some places

Then

I have to balance the good fear and the bad fear
But I of course fail often
I take the bad fear and ignore the good fear
Then I just have to start over again
