A dark cloud
Of fear, of anxiety, of panic
Came from the sea
Of challanges and problems
Jumping in this world
So well.
Humans used to cower,
Hoping that
Nothing could see
The little living being.
But that is not the way...
Just one among all
Stood up.
That human faced
The fear
Not avoiding it
But accepting the humanity
Of that feeling.
That human was the first
To feel better.
The dark cloud started
Stepping back and
Fading.
