Fear Of Failure
When every step you take
Is judged and scrutinized
And the fear of failure
Leaves you paralyzed
When you try so hard
To impress those around
But the harder you try
The more you feel bound
But then comes a moment
A turning point in time
When you realize
You no longer need to climb
The ladder of expectations
Set by society
For the opinions of others
Hold no value or priority
Your soul becomes unburdened
As you let go of the need
To impress and conform
And instead, just be freed
Your true self emerges
From behind the facade
And the mask you wore
Slowly starts to dissolve
Your freedom begins
As you shed the chains
Of seeking approval
And playing these games
You dance to your own tune
And sing your own song
For you no longer need
To feel like you belong
You're free to be yourself
Unapologetically so
For when you stop trying to impress
That's when your true self will glow
