Change is Power, The Power to Change

March 4, 2014

What would I change?

It's quite simple you see,

The power to change,

Something I can be.

A boost in confidence,

Would that be too much to ask,

I don't see how,

To take risks and a chance.

I try and I will,

But this doesn't seem to help,

I want to be brave,

Instead of shy from help.

There is more inside me,

Somewhere deep inside,

Something better than me,

That always seems to hide.

The one thing I would change,

Is a small characteristic,

It isn't that hard to fix,

But I don't know if I can risk it.

The things I could do,

with more confidence,

To stand up and fight,

Not hide behind a fence.

I put up a good front,

But what people can't see,

Is that behind all this,

There is a coward in me.

Confidence can go a long way,

If I can let it out,

Nothing can slow me down,

And the sky is limitless.
