“Uncertainty grows like ivy,
Thoughts like these only feed anxiety,
But through the meadow I keep on walking,
Fuelled by the words I keep on writing.
I risk it all despite the fear of falling,
I jump head first into the unknown mystery of tomorrow,
And on the many cross roads I seem to find, I always pick a side,
Even if, by now, I still feel like I never got any of them right.
Failure lurks in the shadows
Poisoning my endless, sleepless nights
With nonsensical stains of sorrow
Of a future that might never see the light.
If I fall, I always get up –
This is the truest thing I’ve found
That gives me the strength I need to go on
From zero to infinity and beyond…”
Ana.
