The First Step

Looking a direction, want to take the first step.
Want to start moving, but then hesitation creeps up my neck.
What lies ahead, after I make my first move?
I tell myself one thing, but it’s like I’m in cement shoes.
The thought of what will happen next, takes hold of my mind.
Then I start to wonder, is it worth flying blind?
I mean look at your track record, and how things ended up.
The indecision makes me want to yell, to shout.
'The first step is the hardest’ That’s what people say,
but that first leaves me anxious, the guesswork leaves me vexed.
I look at the others, all moving along, and I know a part of me
wants to join them all.
I guess it comes down to one question for me,
do I want to win big?
Or not even risk the fee.
Should I step forward and start going somewhere?
Or am I really content with life in nowhere?
