Poetry: Where Am I Headed
Where Am I Headed
I made a sincere commitment to
Get the action habit
I’d wondered how many potential
Opportunities I’d carelessly tossed
Aside because I did not dare to pursue
My dreams when challenges surfaced
When ant meets an obstacle on its path
It never quits trying to climb over it or
Find a way to go around it or evade it
But once I met any obstacle I chicken out
But now I’ve come to know that every
Idea worth anything has failure potential
Within it, so I’ve decided that this is going
To be the day I’m going to do something
About my abandoned dreams.
