The invincible Crutch (a poem of contemplation)
The invincible crutch
Keeps you back from unveiling Grace that abounds
Ties you to a pole, digs you a hole
All that's easy is clothed in defeat
Despair and fear arrest the muscles made to work
A call to rise gets stunted by a thought
I can't do this, so I will crawl
Mediocre thinking in a Gigantic mind
Looking for answers without trying
It's always difficult until you try
To see the light in the darkness inside
Set an example that others can follow
The pity party has to end one day
Out where the lights have stilled the shadows
Pity the one who stopped trying
Who failed the test they set for themselves
Who scored a goal yet felt defeat
Whose eyes have been blinded by carefree lies
Pity the one who quit before dawn
Deciding to stop while the race was still on
Pity the fire fights and still side kicks
Of frenzied twists that show no zeal
But you my friend are much more
So get ride of the invincible crutch
You have more
You are more than the invincible crutch
