At The Footbridge
At the footbridge here in sight,
although it's now the dark of night,
within this time of dimmest light
what's there beyond is such a fright.
That place unknown in some way might
be worse than where I stand tonight.
So is it wrong or is it right
to cross this footbridge to that site?
This tough dilemma does invite
an urge for me to just sit tight.
I know to stay will not ignite
my inner fear; but then in spite
of dread beyond this footbridge plight,
new ventures lie which might incite
a turn in life that may delight...
So off I step...misgivings, fight.
