The fork in the road between love and fear

Why is it that we choose love?

Why is it that we choose fear?

-

It’s all just fear playing tricks in my head.

it’s the inspiration of the world warming my souls essence with love.

The influence that surrounds is esstential aside from choice.

-

Do you believe each person is born evil?

Can it be the lack of tools, and cruelty shown that corrupts their mind and soul?

-

The picture I am painting

The broader spectrum of black and white.

To express the spectrum of light within, incredibly comfortable; an array of Color.

-

The choice is ours, to:

Influence positivity

Influence creativity

Influence curiosity

-

Choose wisely, what you feed your mind.

Choose wisely, how you act.

Choose wisely, how you speak .

All of it is what you teach

-

The power is within all of us.

I close with questions to answer within.

Today, will you act out of:

love?

Or

fear?

About the Creator

Irreversible Poet

I choose understanding above all else, above fear, above hate. No human is born evil.

"You alone choose ultimately where fate will take you; hold your pen proud, don’t allow others to hold it and write for you.”
