I could..
I could fall from anywhere:
Grace, Favour, Humility.
As long as you were there to catch me.
I could take a blow anywhere:
My skull, My heart, My pride.
If you were the one to land it.
I could watch all of my dreams fade:
Recognition. Conquest. Forgiveness.
If you were the one to wake me.
I could face all of my fears:
Regret and Age and Karma.
If I could only face you.
I could face the truth

That hit deep when I read it - I know that fear.
Yup.
The strongest fear.
I think maybe if i were to face that which I am most afraid of, I might be able to overcome other obstacles that blight my way, regardless of the outcome.
You know how it is when you want something to go a certain way, but you know that if it doesn't, a huge part of your life will be over and you will have to start all over again..
Gah..
Yes, as a matter of fact, I know that feeling very well.
Strangely, I also know that I will get past the pain and that I am already better for purging that poison from my life.
Doesn't mean that some days I feel ashamed of myself for missing it.
Sometimes I get really confused with what I might be writing about.
I read it again after what you said, and it seems that this can apply to starting something new as much as it applies to purging something old.
It's good that we have these things that trouble us to write about, but I often wish they would just go away.
Ignorance being bliss and all that...
I love this one. :)
:(
nice poem though
