Courage

blah

I wish I had the courage to tell you,
to shed this secret of mine.
To have the air between us cleared,
I wish I had the courage.

I wish I had the strength to look you in the eyes,
to be able to tell you the truth.
To have the tension cease to be there,
I wish I had the strength.

I wish I had the gumption to let my tounge go,
to just tell you of my hurts.
To tell you flat out that I'm not 4 years old anymore,
I wish I had the gumption.

Call it Courage, Strength, Gumption...whatever you will,
that will make me stand up to you.
That will make it so I'm not scared of you anymore,
Courage, Strength, or Gumption...I wish I had them all.

This piece speaks of the yearning to be freed from invisible chains. All too often in our lives, we lack to courage and the conviction to stand up for ourselves. Describes the subject nicely. Well done.
