If I Am Nothing Else..

If I am nothing else I am daring.

I should have stopped long ago and questioned why love comes and leaves. 

I should have asked why I invite it in, only to show it back out again.

But I have not stopped. I have kept loving.  

I have chosen to stand nose to nose with fear, hands on hips, unmoved.

He is ever confident that he will win out, but I have the key to what defeats him.

I have the courage to love. And to love freely.

To be daring is to be free.

And if I am nothing else, I am daring.
