Doubts. Fear. A dark past.
We all have them-
but listen to me now:

We fight.
We fight our shadows,
our weakness,
our doubts-
and yet we rise our fist higher than before.

Fear is close- always near- but we move forward,
we don't let it take over us
we never let it win.

Our dark past.
Yes, they hurt.
But let them clear your path,
embrace them, hold them tight,
let them be your reminder:
You are stronger.

Grow like trees
some never watered,
yet they still rise-
breaking stone, reaching the skies.

Have the courage to rise from fear,
don't let it drown you deeper.
Stand tall.
Face your shadow- and fight.
We all have problems either is doubts, fear, or our past. We should remind to fight them and not let them drag us down the water.
Echoes Of A Mind Dec 2015
Can you see this rose?
The one in my hand
If I pull off the petals
One by one they'll fall
And what remains
Will only be the stalk
Which I'll be able to break
With one move of my hand.
The power he had over me, I'm not sure if he even knew that...
