my grandmother' story

I asked old soldier:
Were you afraid at least one time?
He said: yes, of course, I won't lie.
I didn't know what's next,
What to expect.
In times when fear was stopping me,
I closed my eyes, and voice inside,
Would push me forward:
It's for the future, you will be fine;
Go, make one step, then one more,
And more, and more...
Now, see, I am with you at home.
