Turning Point

I stand upon a ledge, a precipice in time
A place where things will change forever
The things I do from here I can't rewind
This string of time I will not sever

A place where things will change forever
As I step into the vast unknown
This string of time I will not sever
A leap of faith will now be shown

As I step into the vast unknown
To find the future that awaits for me
A leap of faith will now be shown
For I shall finally gain this victory

To find the future that awaits for me
I'll look ahead instead of back
For I shall finally gain this victory
When in life's journey I attack

I'll look ahead instead of back
The things I do from here I can't unwind
When in life's journey I attack
I stand upon a ledge, a precipice in time

I'm glad you enjoyed it. I find this style though to be inspirational as half the poem writes itself, so it it is easy and fun for me to write.
