Fluttering like bird wings
a whisper on the wind
petals trembling
the fear holds me still
but for shivering
the waves racing down my spine
new beginnings scare me
what if I fail
the fear clings
to me pulling me down
avenues shoving me towards the inevitable
frustration and fear
I cling to them like friends
who know my secrets hearing words
I think despite what I say
they know the truth of what I hideaway
afraid to step forward failure plagues
all I wish the fear didn’t enfold an intrepid explorer,
bold but here I am scared to the bones
So you can see it
I am extremely frustrated
Terrified even
This feeling is a constant struggle
But I know at the end I'll feel a bit humble
