what do you put down
when the work calls to you,
when it scratches
at the edge of your conscience,
desperate -
what thread
that keeps you balanced
do you let fall
in hope of a success
threatening to unravel
all you have crafted
some day
might I add up
to a portion
of the sum of my dreams,
might I find the courage
to be who I am
while realizing my potential -
or is it one or the other?
do I ask too much?
