Boldly

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.
