I've tried so hard to summon courage when certain challenges surface, it just doesn't work. I hate physical brawls, maybe because I am not all muscled and stuff. Had a recent near fight encounter, couldn't follow through; thus this poem...


My friend, great nemesis
Why don't fools feel its vibe?
The brave ones are warriors
Feeble hearts, empty caskets

It flees at the sight of the brave
Joy it has at the sight of me
Like jungle apes our romance is fierce
Peacefully fierce, our sojourn ends not

The thuds of my tiptoe
Heard across the continent
Light feet brains of light
Fearlessly fearful, my heart jumps

The adrenaline rush comes
Easily to me, negatively to me
My shell is large enough
I reside within, not without

Though reasons be in millions
My anger scuttles away in fear
Chained, held by un-seen hands
Voices within declare I am a coward

Quite short. Five verses only cool . But I am hoping to review it, after some research.
