An unlikely journey
An oft-beaten path
"Decisions, decisions!"
"Am I good enough?"

Don't give me a chance
To look into my future,
I know not if I'll accept
Or move on with a prayer.

For the beauty of the unknown
Is alluring, for sure,
But the fear of the unknown
Isn't known to give you more.

So I decide
To take in stride
The mist of my life
And the disquiet it hides.

Precarious as it sounds,
"Are you leaving it upon chance?"
 Isn't that what you call it,
That quest for romance?

I'm dancing on the edges of a crossroad here
The signs aren't taking me anywhere near
My dreams and desires are still gaining shape
Faith in the self is all I have.
