Deep down us <br />the courage is there <br />hidden from <br />our heaps of fears <br /> <br />the courage is a network <br />of roots <br />deep down under the <br />rocks and sand <br /> <br />deep down us lies the <br />secret of <br />how is it to be alone <br />and yet survive <br />and soon adapt what <br />is necessary for <br />living <br /> <br />Courage befriends the <br />worms <br />and gathers the wisdom <br />of humus <br /> <br />we go down under and <br />recall <br />and write again <br />what was there <br /> <br />as a reminder <br /> <br />for clouds still drift <br />and winds blow and leave us <br />hollow <br /> <br />turn this world upside down <br />blow the mind and burst <br />thereafter <br /> <br />so much to learn after the <br />explosion <br />courage comes up and <br />we muster.<br /><br />Sebastian Soberania<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/muster-the-courage-to-live/
