Brave Through Anxiety

Steadfast in my aim
Direct line of sight
Constantly obscured
By the anxiety
Of tasks required
Appointments to be made
Places to drive
Simple things
That I have become
Quite afraid of
Is it older age?
Or parenthood
That has robbed me
Of my bravery
Or the world
That scares me these days
I know not the source
But the goal
…
Of that I’m fully aware
In my mind
Intention set
The result visualized
…
To be –
Fearless
…
In the rudimentary things
…
And if I should fail
I’ll try again tomorrow
