It's a part of me


Always do what you are afraid to do

If someone else did it why can't you?

I dreamed of living,

I thought I could fly,

But sometimes it can be scary to try

What if I fall?

Will I be able to hide?

I forgot to spread my wings and try.

The idea was appealing ,

The possibilites were scary,

The action was amazing.

I did not think it'd be easy

But I still kept on dreaming

I never touched the sky,

but dreams can be modified.

My fall turned into a dive

For once I was truely alive

The fear is still present

It's apart of me

That's why it's brilliant

It makes life scary

But fear is what makes you you.
