Holding You Back

So many things
hold us back
or stand in the way
of what we truly want.
Metaphorically
it could be
a castle’s wide moat
barring entrance
a cold chain-link fence
preventing contact
a coarse brick wall
limiting vision
or a rope around your neck
halting movement.
And for too many people
that’s where it ends…
Well I dare you
to swim that moat
to run down past that fence
to scale that wall
or to snap that rope
for your own sake.
You’ll thank me when you do.
