Baby steps of the inept

won't get you over that edge.

Open your eyes, the ones that cry-

self-pity crowds that ledge.

~

Tears can't jump over that hump,

the one you dare to climb.

Clipped wings, silent dreams,

hinders the want to thrive.

~

Find a risk and take it!

But no one is looking.

fake it!

~

Borrow some strength and fly!

I can't afford to.

just try!

~

The days and weeks

won't wait too long.

Life is but a test

Not for the weak

but the strong.

Giving up is

not a choice.

Life goes on,

with

or without your

a m a z i n g

voice.
