Including Me

I borrowed courage, took some heart,
From someone else who looked the part,
And it's not real, although I feel that I am strong,
How long before it all goes wrong ?
I'll find MY courage and MY heart,
No need to chase, I'll state my case and move on in,
To claim my prize, Only the wise,
Will see the door, in the centre of the floor,
How many times have I walked past,
Cos life was moving way too fast,
Just slow down and I can see,
It's for us all,
Including me.
