Boldly,
No other word will do,
For the way you forge
Into your life
Each day.
Steps I take to follow
Slow,
With trepidation.
Earmarked with caution,
Riddled with fear.
An extra skin
Carried so long,
A hardened shell,
Baked by the heat
Of a thousand
Silent stares,
Doubting me,
Until
I doubt myself.
You,
The inspiration,
The light,
That will guide me,
Free me,
From the prison
Of
Indecision.
