Feels like my life is on pause,
Feet too heavy to move on.
Where do I take my next step,
When something inside feels torn?
Is it the unknown holding me back,
Or the truth that I do know?
What awaits on the other side,
Is the magnitude of what I hold.
Maybe I’m not afraid to fail,
But scared of what it means to succeed.
Courage seeps through my cracks,
And I wonder who I’ll meet.
A silent storm stands in my way,
A path ahead I cannot see.
I thought I had to weather it,
But maybe the storm has always been ME.
