Hold You Back Again! Please understand that fear is not your master and you are not its slave But fear is tricky and will try to make you behave It will try to keep you from living your power It will make you want to bow down and cower But it has no control over you unless you give it the chance Then you become a victim of your own circumstance As fear then takes over and is in control And now you’re stuck, frozen in a fearful mold And that’s the cycle that never stops and never goes away Until you decide that it’s a game you no longer want to play And once you recognize fear for what it is and what it is not Then all the power and all the freedom is what you’ve got © 2016 Darshan G.
