Fierce

I have nothing to fear
except fear itself.
Fear packed it's toys
And looking for a playmate
went off to play with hate.

Fear can be useful,
just not to me.
To me it's just an echo
trying to tell me
I'm not good enough.
I am good enough.

I am fierce
In love and battle.
I am worthy because I care.
of what pain can do
I am aware,
I won't seek to cause it
or blame it.
I accept who I am.
I shall fear no evil,
I shall hate no thing.
I will accept my choices
And the reasons for them.

Fearless is a state of
Utter confidence
In rags and with nothing,
I can tell you I'm something
Because I've invested in me.
In faith and grace and empathy.

We are all something.
we have nothing to fear
but fear it's self
And fear stems from
a lack of understanding.
Knowlege and compassion
will always serve you well

Send fear packing,
send it to hell,
and replace it with
common sense and courage.
You are something special my dear,
That you must never fear.

"Fear packed it's toys and looking for a playmate and went to play with hate." This is so incredibly true, people tend to hate what they fear.
