Point of No-Return

Listen to poem:
. | I'm here on the point of no return no turning to back-track. It's not a place. It's not a position. It's a full stop, period. It's a final decision time. There's no dimension, space to get a foothold, time to look back, or to think about going back, returning to those safer spaces to dwell and revive. They have long since well and truly passed by. The needle spire piercing through my soul of boot is forcing me to take the first step to my destination, quickly and incisively, as there is no way down from here. There's no reverse, no going back, in time or space, only on, up.
