Description

You ask me, 'what is courage?'


Courage is seeing the hail of fire that surrounds you;


The flashes of light that blind.


Projectiles that score flesh and bone,


Sending red rivers splashing through the sky.


Courage is seeing all of that and staying on to fight,


Simply because there are those who cannot.

Everyone wishes they were brave at some point. The important thing is simply to pluck up the courage and try ^^

I just posted one. Here, I'll write it on the comments. It's not labeled as about courage, it's more of the concept.

Few know the difference,

But I am one of those who do.


It’s the difference between being dragged into the arena

Or walking in with head held high.

It’s the difference in circumstance,

And if you choose to laugh or to cry.


Whether you stay down or you rise,

It’s your choice to make.

Just know in your heart,

There really is a difference in the path you choose to take.


Laugh or cry,

Rise or fall,

Give up or fight back,

It’s completely your call.

Just know the difference before you make up your mind,

Because it’s your call alone, and to those who are watching,Β 

Your choice may change lives.

And if there are too many who manage to stay, facing the described, courage is defined by walking away.

I'll admit, the audio was freaky... it sounded like a chorus of ghostly figures hahaΒ  but it was still cool! I really like how many different ways you can adapt your voice. it was very haunting, but I like those kind of things haha I really liked it, but it wasn't what I expected

Challenge accepted! ...I'll just post it here, if that's ok....

Courage for the soldier
Courage for the lover
Courage for the child
for the lives torn asunder

It is when the
hate
fear
tears
are known
and yet there is still a smile when the sun sets
That is C O U R A G E

Courageous soldiers
Courageous lovers
Courageous children
help make the sun rise again
~THANKYOU~
Have a Good Day!
