Fear

It is said that before entering the sea

a river trembles with fear.

She looks back at the path she has traveled,

from the peaks of the mountain,

the long winding road crossing forest

And villages.

And in front of her,

She sees an ocean so vast,

That to enter

There seems nothing more than to disappear forever.

But there is no other way.

The river cannot go back.

Nobody can go back.

To go back is impossible for existence.

The river needs to take the risk

Of entering the ocean.

Because only then will fear disappear,

Because that's where the river will know

It's not about disappearing into the ocean,

But of becoming the ocean.
