Oh! I yearn for courage
To speak my mind, with no fear of the judging tongue.
To not hold back my tears and pretend to be numb.
To confront, and not cold shoulder furtive
To forget for good, and not just forgive.
To look forward to failure for plain learning sake
To accept rejections with my pride at stake

More so I yearn,
For zeal to stay and fight though the die is long cast,
Carpe Diem till i breathe my last.
