Fear Or Love

A Poem

Fear Or Love.

There is a place as beautiful as any dream you can see.

Where you can achieve all you’ve ever wanted and where you are free.

It’s just pass the darkness that can blind you to the beauty of the stars.

Through the prison where you are kept behind invisible bars.

Under the negative mind set where anger, bitterness and guilt remain...

You find yourself trapped in your lower self again.

You find it hard to breathe as tears of frustration roll down your tired face.

You ask “why me” and pray to get out of this place.

Disease stems from Dis-ease and you are feeling unwell.

You were riding so high but suddenly you fell.

There’s an echo stirring inside your gut.

It’s your intuition yelling “get out of this rut.”

Fear has overcome you and now you’re afraid.

To change the bed that you feel has been made.

Sometimes when we live in fear we lose our mind.

But we have a choice and a better life can be ours to find.

If we choose to love ourselves and others.

If we can just see a light of positivity in the darkest of days.

If we breathe hope in the confusion have faith through the sadness.

Through the madness of the storm we will walk on through life’s maze.

All we need to save ourselves and regain our health.

Is to rise above within ourselves and find our higher self.

Where there is peace, compassion, understanding and love.

The choice is yours my friend do you choose to live in Fear Or Love.
