The Millstone [revisited] Poem by Lenny Camacho

The Millstone [revisited]



FEAR is the millstone, and confidence is the grain,
that we, willingly, place under the millstone's weight.

What if we do? , what if we don't? , we'll never know
if we remain full of doubt and just look at the road.

A grain as small as a mustard seed is the first step,
cherish it, do not misplace it, have faith in yourself.

Confidence is the grain that we must take to the field,
which will grow into deeds and our disbelief will yield.
