Minefields

Each step determines your fate

by the time you look down it’s already too late

the clock is ticking you must choose your way

but one wrong move could number your days

Your head screams, “Danger!”

but you’ve got nowhere to hide

you’re trapped in a minefield

where fear and mind collide

But in this field your fate’s up to you

to win or to lose, which will you choose

to win, to have done all you could do

or to lose, to give up without seeing things through

For most this is a place without any hope

but some people are willing to learn how to cope

before them a path will soon become clear

and it will guide them away from the fear
