Wipe Your Fears by biijeymilloney5: 11:08am On Nov 28, 2018 |
Wipe your fears The mind panics as you mount the stage over the future of your coming age What to be? What to do? As life questions seek to bombard you And like a scholar with poor preparation for a test, You give little or no feedback to these questions Your fears begins to pilot your thinking Your mind gets occupied with doubt Till the shackles of a sunless sky cloud the path on which you always rely You become effortlessly skeptical of what it is to come You sew a corn seed but doubt if you’ll reap a corn in return Now that schooling is over, what is left for you? Will you land that dream job? Will you even fulfill half of your fantasies? Will your pastures ever be green like a well-watered lawn or scanty like an overgrazed land? Without the blessings of dungs to yield its growth But hold on a minute! Why allow the fear of the unknown torture you? Like a mother at the peak of conception Why not look back reminiscing obstacles long crossed Battles won, victories celebrated Looking back and remembering all you’ve achieved And the power of letting go to believe Crushing the chains of the dark confine, uprooting the seeds of fear To illuminate a road of endless sunshine Dropping all worries like a penny in the sand Believing in the divine one that has brought you this far Embracing each living moments with good faith With a mind chasing after its goal Ready to live its fantasies, fully assured of what it is to come.
