It takes a leap of faith to chase our dreams,

To take the path less traveled, or so it seems,

Risk is the name of the game we play,

The stakes are high, but we'll find a way.

The thrill of uncertainty is what we seek,

The chance to make the impossible, possible and unique,

For only by taking risks can we truly grow,

To discover what's within us, and let our spirits flow.

The rewards of risk are many and great,

An adventure that's worth the risk and wait,

It's a journey of the heart, a journey of the soul,

Where we find our true selves, and our true goal.

Through the challenges we face and overcome,

We learn the value of the risks we've taken,

For it's in these moments, we find our strength,

And a life we once dreamed, we can finally make.

We shatter the shackles of apprehension,

And let our spirits soar, loud and clear,

We find new meaning, and a new way of life,

A world of endless possibilities, free from strife.

For every risk we take, there's a reward to reap,

A treasure to cherish, a memory to keep,

For it's in these moments we truly come alive,

And find the courage to continue to strive.

So let's take the risk, and chase our dreams,

To make the impossible, possible, or so it seems,

For the rewards of risk are many and great,

An adventure that's worth the risk and wait.
