Dark Waters

I cross the threshold into the unknowing, Plenty can quantify my needs. Whispers of hints, Clues to the secrets which lie in the mist, Are given, And I am not blind enough to let them surpass unnoticed. I wade through the dark waters, Unsure of what lies beneath. Snakes of terror, Gators of death, I refuse to shrink in fear. I continue on, Head held strong, Above the current that buffets, Trying to force me down. For nothing brings me to its depths, My will power far too great. I climb those waves of steps and steps, And renounce false fate.
