I am no longer a slave to fear

I am no longer a slave to fear.
In the dark I faced you for the first time. It is at that moment that I realized how small you were and how powerful I could become. I let you overcome my thoughts and actions. I let you commit suicide within my heart and it killed me. Every morning waking up feeling empty and alone. I let you take over and I let go. But I am no longer a slave to you. Fear, pain and deceit you may no longer describe me. I am a free man to roam this earth with light beaming through my eyes.

Either it be our fear that control us or someone who controls us. We underestimate how powerful we really are. We feel sorrow at the failures we have gathered over the years and we we feel nothing about them can be done. So instead of doing anything about them we let them control our lives and guide us to a life of dread. It is our light not our darkness that is most frightening.

Wow this is a strong and real powerful write and outlook. I identify with this shift of perception in regards to obstacles. I can sense the peace in the speaker as they make these affirmations.

Quiet nice depth observation of your fears. Words can maybe help some people do it same like You. Message is very clear. Poem is short but explain everything and make reader to participate.
