I Buried My Fear at the Crossroads

Two roads. No sign.

Midnight wind cut through my coat, Moon hung low in my throat. Left path whispered safe and slow, Right path said, “Let’s go.”

I stood there with shaking hands, Weight of blood and broken plans. Every doubt I ever knew Staring back at me in two.

You don’t outrun fear. You plant it.

I buried my fear at the crossroads, Dug it deep in the dirt. Left it there with the old me, With the doubt and the hurt.

No prayer in my pocket, No angel to lead. Just a man and a shovel — And something to bleed.

I buried my fear at the crossroads.

Crow perched high on a splintered sign, Like it knew that night was mine. I didn’t wait for some divine — I drew the line.

You can’t walk both ways forever, You can’t live safe and call it better. So I picked the darker road — And let it unfold.

Fear don’t die easy. You make it.

I buried my fear at the crossroads, Covered it with stone. Left it there in the midnight air — Walked on alone.

No chain to hold me, No hand to guide. If the Devil wants me — He’ll find me on the ride.

I buried my fear at the crossroads.

It ain’t bravery.

It’s decision.

I buried my fear at the crossroads, Watched the dirt fall down. Some men wait for fate — I took the crown.

No shaking shadow, No trembling breath. If you bury fear — You don’t scare death.

I buried my fear at the crossroads.
