Angst

By: Shira Howerton

Entering the unknown
Not knowing which way to turn
Doubt creeps in
Left, right, each way makes me numb
Confident, yet foolhardy
I want it all
Steady those feet
One after the other
I reach up to push away distraction
Thrusting my self-worth down a beaten path
Am I going in the right direction-
No one can know but me
I want to run, but I walk
Too fast and amiss something may be
Almost there I can taste it
Success pushing through the tangled web
