I hope you’re having a beautiful day. ♡
Here’s another light-filled ¤ Gem ¤

Hello Fear.
I know you’re there, you get me with that icy stare.
Though the time be day or night, I cannot run beyond your sight.
You call to me to pause, retreat. You beckon me to choose defeat.
On your advice I wouldn’t try, I make excuses, quit or die.
But now I know the secret fear, I am the one who brought you here.
I nurtured you, while all the time I did not realize
How sublime was my existence, my own being.
You’ve had it Fear, because now I’m feeling.
We might meet again. You might beckon now and then.
But I made you what you are today. I own you, Fear.
Get out of my way.
