I like the way I started this, but after the first stanza, I just seem to lose my flow. I don't know... I need some giudance on this one. Any comments would be greatly appreciated.



Everyday I live life
every second, minute, hour and day
At every moment I breathe life
Reality that seems to never go away.
At every turn I see life.
People teetering on it’s very cusp.
And in this air the taste of life.
Reminding me continuously never to give up
Yet I sit silently and I stare
Afraid to go forward
In a world that forces you to move.
It’s been easy up until this point.
Here is where my challenges grow.
Now is when I must step up.
...I’ve never been so scared.

In the face of life,
In the midst of reality,
On the threshold of moving forward.
I have confronted my worst fear,
The future and my failures on a collision course.
I dread these upcoming decisions
The images that plague my vision.
For my fears I cannot hide.
Success I fear my shortcomings will override.

I must have strength.
The courage to face my future,
the unknown to become my closest friend.
My fear at it’s greatest peak
with the promise of tomorrow.
Where I am most vulnerable
To life’s most formidable obstacles.
Only within myself, can I find the answers
Only through experience can I learn.
Only with time shall I grow.
And only my life, it is I can control

the concept of life and reality
the 2 and 3 stanza stood out far better then the first
but it was overall a nice piece .
