Fearless Within

By Usha Panda

“Hold the mic and speak”- a task that guarantees goosebumps,

A horrific sense of negativity rushes through our eardrums. 

Words hover our head but often ceases to fire, 

A fearless and captivating speech is all that we desire.

We live in a world where ideas need to be heard 

A society which scales your status with pompous words. 

A place where communication wins over cognition

The sense of public failure has made the greatest lose its position. 

Loose the shackles of fright and stand facing the eager eyes

Speak like the sense of public sham merely dies

A successful man never meets the destination without defeat. 

Let failure alone bow before the successes you repeat. 

When the negativity becomes a harmless entity 

There’s when the same mic gives our success the true clarity.
