True courage (inspired by Writer's Island)

When it comes to fear

I choose fight over flight

But to replace fear with anger

Somehow doesn’t feel right

This technique really sucks

And has little to do

With the spirit and heart

Of courage that is true

True courage is able

To stay with the fear

Looks at it closely

Even holds it dear

Watches it patiently

With awareness that is pure

That it will eventually dissolve

True courage knows for sure
