To You

 

To be someone without fear

is to be someone without life

So much to believe in,

yet nothing to follow through the darkness,

not even a light

Be someone who needs, not wants

Be someone who thinks, not blocks

Someone to be is who this is for,

for not being someone is the greatest failure

And yet, being someone who fails is worse

Do not fear failure, 

but don't seek it either

Everything is that simple,

if you want it to be

Yet it seems so many want it to not

I shake my head as these go by,

hopefully never returning

Find me, you, who knows no flames,

and we can leave however feels right.
