These words, expressive and well-meant as they are, never satisfy. A craving for more is there, locked inside a dark room where all ambition lies, all potential. It does not deserve to be caged down like a dangerous entity that could disbalance my state of being. No, it is there because of me, because of fear. Fear of the unknown, of the potential within the unknown. A mental chain that runs tight all around the surface, limiting the possibility of success, cementing the possibility of failure. It is all imaginary, no more real than a dream that entices to where danger lies. And yet, there it is, nudging, pecking, persuading, winning.

An Attempt
These words, expressive and well-meant as they are, never satisfy. A craving for more is there, locked inside a dark room where all ambition lies, all potential. It does not deserve to be caged down like a dangerous entity that could disbalance my state of being. No, it is there because of me, because of fear. Fear of the unknown, of the potential within the unknown. A mental chain that runs tight all around the surface, limiting the possibility of success, cementing the possibility of failure. It is all imaginary, no more real than a dream that entices to where danger lies. And yet, there it is, nudging, pecking, persuading, winning.
Another flow of emotions.
