Have you got the courage? <br />To deal with personal baggage <br /> <br />Have you got the courage? <br />To embark on a new voyage <br /> <br />It is crystalline common knowledge <br />Many a woman born with courage <br />Has had piffling or no privileges <br />To travel through life’s hideous passage <br />And stand stubbornly by her message <br /> <br />Highs but not the lows, If you one of those <br />Have you got the courage, to end your marriage? <br /> <br />Have you got the courage, to face your fears? <br />Or experiment with new ideas <br /> <br />Have you got the courage, to say you love me? <br />And maturely accept if I glee or flee <br /> <br />Have you got the courage, to repair all self inflicted damage <br />Before your life becomes wastage <br /> <br />Have you got the courage, to learn a new language? <br />Can you manage with new knowledge? <br /> <br />Have you got the courage, to admit your gruesome rage? <br />Instead of acting like an actress on stage <br /> <br />Courage comes with age <br />When priority is no more image <br />Courage comes with change <br />Evolving from leadership shortage <br /> <br />In life, at this stage <br />Courage is something you must engage <br />It must be clearly visible in every page<br /><br />Sylvia Chidi<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/have-you-got-the-courage/
