You’re afraid...and for all the wrong reasons.

But you seem to love fear, so allow it to be worth your while —

Be afraid of never truly loving yourself,

Be afraid of killing the magic of your existence,

Be afraid of smothering your consciousness,

Be afraid that you’re unaware and life is passing you by,

Be afraid that you’ve put your curiosity away on a shelf,

Be afraid of never truly knowing yourself.

Let fear overflow and swallow you whole,

Embrace it like you would a dear old friend,

Soon you’ll see it rapidly dissolve in its own sinkhole,

And all the anguish you feel WILL come to an end,

You’ll resurface with light bursting forth from your core,

It will annihilate your doubts and won’t let you fall,

An innate calm shall hold you forevermore,

And you’ll see that there is no need to be afraid after all.
