Inhale, exhale
Chest straining; struggling for breath
Regular panic attacks
Accustomed, even expected
Drenched by cold sweat of fears
Moment of truth has arrived
Waiting around unknowing
The results from choices made
Doubting, asking oneself
Why you even attempt such things
Time, dreadfully slow
Clicking on for eternity
Fears infiltrated all thoughts
Swirling around and around
Creating illusions from weaknesses
Afraid of failure
Scared of letting others down
Becoming a disappointment
In the eyes of those that matters
Paralyze, unable to move
Digging down, somewhere deep
Finding the strength and courage
Pushing till the end
Results doesn’t even matter
The risk is worthy of it all
