Beginnings

scare me–

make the butterflies go crazy;

Beginnings

wear me

out

like a rainy day commute on a Friday eve.

But what is life without a lil

Thrill?

And what is living 

without

Losing and winning

Stopping and spinning

Crying and grinning

Ending and beginning?

For every sunrise, a sunset–

For every first gig, a last set–

So before we run out of time

Maybe we should put it all on the line

Grab the opportunity, regardless if it’s smart

And step out there and make our journeys start.

Some say courage is the absence of fear

And for others acting in spite of it–

But, fear or none,

Action has to be done

So let’s go out there

Into “the great everywhere”

And face our beginnings

In this life–let’s find our meanings.
