It’s the kiss of death
to your dreams
and your hopes,
to new love
and adventure
an instant thought
that explodes
in your mind
killing off this
and killing off that
anything new
it can find
the chain
that holds you
firmly in place
to the rut
you have chosen
so you can’t
run in the race
spewing out reasons
at the speed of light
as it buries the truth
afraid that you might
believe in something
that’s different than
the way things have
always been
A deadly killer
known by many names
doubt
fear
worry
wondering
someday
but they are just aliases
he hides behind
He whispers
in your dreams at night
he’s the shadow
you won’t dare to fight
Don’t let him kill
your dreams
your hopes,
new adventures
and new love
His real name is
Hesitation
and he’s a killer
so stop and destroy him
with some courage
and three words
I WILL CHANGE!
