Always escaping when you should do so no longer:
a roach that scurries back to the dark
in fear of its life.
Being squashed – not a prospect to be relished;
but if life has no risks, then
it isn’t worth living.
Commitment is key, even if tomorrow
is uncertain.
To fear is to escape all the time,
instead of standing one’s ground
against your worst fears.
Have faith, make a stand,
commit and don’t budge!
