Beyond the ken of our comfort
lies a place which calls
forth awe in our hearts.
What’s to happen, if we
break through to where
“there be dragons”
in the ocean of ourselves?
Will we not be protected
by a hidden shield -courage –
enough to face them,
overcome those doubts and fears,
break the manacles
and wrestle ourselves free
of the shadow?
