Unflinched

I glare at my nemesis from a distance
It's either now or never
I've been held captive for so long
I can't keep paying for the sins of my forefathers
It's either now or never

With every successive step I take
My mind is clouded with doubts
What if it all goes wrong?
What if I'm not strong enough?
What if I lose my life?
A little voice whispers in my ears
It's either now or never

I may not be the wisest of men nor the fiercest of warriors
But I rather die a hero than a coward
It's either now or never

My name would be remembered for generations to come.
My image would be sculptured and my praises sang
My successors would never would never again feel this pain
It's either now or never

This is yet another of my attempts at poetry. This piece is in response to the #pictureprompt.

It's either now or never, we learn to face our fears.

Woaaah, I enjoyed every piece of this poem.

I'm glad you did🤗

It's either now or never, we learn to face our fears.

This is the message. If we dont do it now, then the chances of doing it in the future are blurry..

Thank you so much for reading ✨

In this poem I see the cry of a young man who faces his destiny, wants to get out of the subdued life in which he finds himself and asks himself the necessary questions to free himself from the doubts that can hold him back. He knows that the risks are strong, but he prefers to die trying than to live in submission.
The poem is like a hymn to freedom. Greetings my friend.

Brilliant one! It's good he finally decided to go forth and do all he can to end whatever it is that holds him captive :) The verses go along well with the provided photo for the prompt.

Good luck!

They don't think about how they do it

They just do it. I think :)

Just keep doing what you did here. You can do it!

I can appreciate the powerful imagery, feelings, and emotions your poem evokes dear poet, and the idea of not wanting to be held captive to the sins of the forefathers. The decision to take action and face one's fears is a courageous one, and doing so for a noble cause may inspire others to follow in your footsteps. Ultimately, the poem seems to be a reminder that life is short and fleeting, and that it is up to each individual to make the most of their time and leave a positive impact on the world.

Congratulations, I really enjoyed your poem

Receive my greetings and affection from Venezuela.
