~This one's for Victor, because he's braver than me...
.........................................
I know that I could be courageous,
Like sounds in the darkness for instance,
and creatures that scratch, bite and sting.
I can put up with slimy green fungus,
and the shrill sound of the dentist's drill,
or even I think, the silence that
comes after Death, and still,
not shake an inch or utter a scream.
But if there is one thing that I daren't do,
that I wouldn't go near, much less look upon
is to look in myself and that is the truth;
for there are some things that are lurking inside,
that I would wish to contain, to forever hide.
.........................................
and also for everyone else, because bravery, like Lions, can come in all different shapes and sizes. ~
PEACE OUT
