I look towards the water,
My destination clear,
Edging towards the moment,
The plan goes on from here.
Its so big and scary,
The unknown ahead of me,
I can see the surface,
The specifics not so clear.
I have to move towards it,
Suddenly I’m in,
No safety of a life jacket,
A new adventure to begin.
Now I’m here its better,
Less variables uncontrolled,
Still I’m in the process,
Of making it my own.
Swimming is exhausting,
Treading water is a chore,
I have to keep on going,
Until I reach the shore.
