Di Fronte Alle Tue Paure (Facing My Own Fears)

POEM 47: Di Fronte Alle Tue Paure (Facing My Own Fears)

I told them to face their fears.

They did and won.

Now I'm faced by my fears

I turn around and run.

I told them to embrace their demons

They did and made peace.

Now I'm visited by my own demons

I fight them and then flee.

I told them to take risks by the horn

They did and reaped bountiful yields.

Now I'm challenged by love

I hide like tares in a wheat field.

Don't laugh at my cowardice

Nor mock my many fears

Look in the mirror and you'll find

The nay in your every yes.

Please come in and have a seat" After a moment, she asked, blushing, "Well, where do we start?" "Leave everything to me. I usually try two in the bathtub, one on the couch and perhaps a couple on the bed. Sometimes the living room floor is fun too; you can really spread out!" "Bathtub, living room floo...
