10: Courage

A surge of hope, storming from within

Golden and crackling on the surface

Vibrating in winners as they win

But glory is not its only purpose
----

Courage is the seed that thrives

Rooted deep in the believer

It's the hidden strength as pain arrives,

It's the battle of a mother
----

It's doing what scares you the most

Looking the devil in the eye

Sharing with it a toast,

Jumping first without asking why
----

It's learning from your worst,

Fighting the fear as it spins

Controlling the fire as it bursts.

And don't despair over the scars

on your skin
----

See the mountains as they fall

Revealing hidden steps

to the top

See yourself overcoming

The terrifying drop
----

For just as fear is a construct,

It is also a word

Courage unlike fear

Can be shaped like a sword
----

Can be as riveting blue as the Atlantic

Or as soft orange as the earth

Can be given, sweet and romantic

Or earned through pain

As demanding as the hearth
----

Just wanted to show that courage is not just heroic but, can be small acts of defiance against fears, and doubts.
