It takes courage to fight for one’s life.
To tread off leading paths.
And wander into darkness
Rejecting much sought after lights.
It takes courage to risk it all
To play dice with God,
And endeavor in unknown realms.
To meet strangers, befriending some
And making some enemies.
It takes courage to follow your dreams
To row your boat through gushing streams
While some labour and wait
And some just wait and scream.
It takes courage to speak up
To try and try but never give up
While some are busy complaining
And some just fill their cup
It takes courage to stand up for right
To never go down without a fight
While some fight and lose and quit
And some lose yet fight and win
Courage it takes to kill and die
To fight for truth when all about you lie
While few reason what and why?
Some simply settle with a tie.
It takes courage to face each moment
While life gives us big challenges
While some always repent
Over what they did
And some are always lost
in what they haven’t done.
It takes only courage
And nothing else
To do whatever you want
To get further than the world will grant
It takes courage to take the journey
To the destination of your dreams
While some simply see the end
Of their journeys
And others see
beginnings at the end.
