I hold myself back
From reaching my potential,
Limited by the fears
Of disappointment and failure.
I long to break free of my cocoon,
Spun with a silk
Made of society rules
And stereotypes.
This cocoon is hard to break through
And very limiting,
But when I do emerge
I can let my creativity
Dance limitless through the sky.

“Just as our physical muscles are developed by lifting heavy weights and doing resistance training, so, too, our intelligence, personality, and character are developed by engaging with the world—especially dealing with problems, difficulties and challenges.” —Mac Anderson and BJ Gallagher
