Afraid No More.


Afraid No More

A poem by MK Douglas.         Copyright © 2011


Hahahaha!  Who's laughing now?  I'm the one.
Fear thought it had me down, but now it's done.
It's had enough.  It ran far away from me.
I've gotten tough.  Don't think what I say is funny.
It was either love or fear.  I had to choose.
Let me make it clear: This war was mine to lose.
Fear thought it had a chance to win.  It tried to creep in
Trying to get a man to sin.  Again and again.
But love came on the scene strong.  It corrected my delaying.
It doesn't seem wrong, not with effective praying
Killing all thoughts to stop moving.  I no longer hesitate.
Being scared is what I'm not doing.  My love goes stronger out the gate
Running like a horse full speed ahead.  Eyes focused on the prize.
The fear in me is indeed dead.  I no longer listen to it's lies.
