Courage overtakes the self when in a rush or anxious struggle; <br />One fears, one dies and the courage is there to save the soul. <br /> <br />Beautiful courage creates a thought for the wayfarer, <br />Beauty has exposed its laws and credentials like paper. <br /> <br />Beautiful death shall speak for itself in the happiest wounds, <br />Lucky are the dead who come alive, who have spoken for their souls. <br /> <br />My asking for beauty is far too deep, my solution for its presence is fatal <br />Yet the years have instilled a beautiful abode in the heart that is thirsty. <br /> <br />Courage undertakes a beautiful moment thoughtless and deep, <br />My wonder has ceased, like the sword that penetrates the flesh.<br /><br />Naveed Akram<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/beautiful-courage/
