Poetry: Steps

by Connor Goodwin

Created on: March 04, 2009

Waiting, hesitating

You are ready, I am not

Walking, hesitating

You have gone, I have not

The decision is made

To take the first step

Though it's too late

She is far, far away

Decisions

You choose between heart or head

I chose head

Wish I chose heart instead

Hand in hand

We no longer stand

We walk, we talk

Together at last

Go into the past

make this so

To let you know

How I feel

Would be ideal

Running, running

Nowhere in sight

Try as I might

You have left with the night

Hesitation, contemplation

Do not hesitate, do not contemplate

Listen to your heart

Or you'll be left in the dark
