Self-Doubt

It’s such a hopeless, gloomy world
for those who walk about
without the confidence of mind
that takes away self-doubt.

But how can you fulfil your aims
if you remain inside,
protected by your prison walls
as in your mind you hide.

Waiting there for you to find
although you fear to go,
is all the knowledge that you need
to help your spirit grow.

So take the plunge and break your cage,
all is not what it seems.
You need to face your inner fears
to realise you dreams.

You’ll find that once you’ve venture out
your fears will soon recede
and then you’ll reap the things in life
that you need to succeed.

In strength of mind you’ll graduate,
your confidence will swell
and very soon you’ll wonder why
you tied yourself in hell.

The world’s a place to grow and love,
enjoyed by all mankind,
so live it with a soul that’s free
not shackled by your mind.

Ivor G Davies



The moment created this second, is a  moment that's going to last.
It lives the full spectrum of time, the future, the present and past.
