What if…

A poem for the strong — that’s you.

I have never felt so scared before.

That’s not true. I have.

Many times in the past.

That’s not true. Not many.

A few.

A few.

Milestones.

Big moments.

Scary moments.

Change.

My goodness change is terrifying.

A dark terror.

What if…

What if someone hurts me?

What if something blocks me?

What if I fail?

What if I hurt myself?

It is the unknown.

And my goodness I might

Fail!

Except…

I’ve been here before.

This very same precipice.

Not many.

A few.

Milestones…

Change…
