A Prayer for Courage
My stomach feels sick,
And I don’t want to eat.
My thoughts move too fast,
Then I can’t think at all.
My insides feel all shaky
And I don’t know what to do.
Part of me wants to run away
And another wants to hide.
Should I try when I’m scared?
Should I do what I’m afraid of?
Will everyone laugh at me?
I feel like I am stuck.
Mighty, Mighty Kindreds,
Great warriors of old,
Help me make the right choice,
And act when I’m afraid.
