what if we weren’t afraid?

for how long
will we let fear ruin us?
the fear which we attain,
the fear which we raise,
the fear which we let live inside,
the fear which rules our lives,
the fear which lets us down,
the fear which grows its roots across our lives,
but what if we weren’t afraid?

the kid didn’t protest his father
he was too little and too weak,
the student didn’t recite his verses in class
he was too bond of discipline and rules of school,
the girl didn’t be a leader
she was too shy to get of her closet,
the boy didn’t leave his 9-6 job
he was too afraid to try what he want and fail,
the girl didn’t choose to be a singer
she was too afraid to fail,
the boy couldn’t her ask her out
he was dwelled with fear of rejection.

fear of failure,
fear of rejection,
fear of breaking norms,
fear of breaking rules,
fear of trying new things,
fear of dwelling on old state,
why do we raise fear?
why don’t we come out of our closet?
when is the right time
to let go of chains straining our dreams?
when will we live upto our expectations?
when will we regain our self-esteem?
there are a lot of questions
which can only be answered if we start getting control over our fear.

if we want to see ourselves somewhere,
at any time
at any place
within any situation
we have to start breaking the walls of fear
pin by pin
inch by inch
brick by brick
and
start moving ahead with delta progress
because if we don’t let go of fear
we will remain enslaved forever
crying
brooding
fretting over small things
complaining about situation we get ourselves in
and
these are not the worth of time
we are giving in.

If we aren’t afraid
we won’t have to listen to anybody
we will listen to our guts
do what we should
do what we want to
we will fail
we will fall
but we will rise
we won’t have regrets
we will try
try
fail
try
fall
try
and
succeed
and
keep moving forward
until
we reach somewhere.
and
will
keep achieving new milestones.

Time will come

Each day sailor faces many breathtaking waves,
sometimes he fights with great valor but still is thrown at the shore,
sometimes he gets so much carried away that,
losing the hope,
leaving the rows,
he just keeps on watching the gigantic sea waves,
and floats over the sea with boat.
He knows he will never cross the sea,
if he gives up.
He tries,
tries and
tries.
He fights each time he faces
the humongous life-snatching waves,
sometimes even he comes through
devastating storms which rolls the boat upside down,
he knows if he won’t try, he will have to face 
the storm 
inside him off the shore after he backs off.
He will try,
try,
and keep on trying
because 
he knows

Time will come
when he will cross the sea,

time will come 
when he will celebrate his success,

time will come
when he will grow out of struggles,

time will come
when he will come with flying colors.
