Settle the matter.

The waves would toss too and fro, the darkness claimed the sky,

Where once the light had glimmered, now the moon was all but nigh,

The skittering and the chattering, the scurrying about in fright,

Where the owl screeched as a battle shout, within the time of night,

Branches sway and leaves decay, the path forward so unclear,

Uncertain thoughts, anxious mind, the potent weapon of fear,

And yet…

How does a dream press forward without a first step to claim,

No longer who you were, and never just the same,

Though doubt says otherwise, and fear the darkest wraith,

It takes but a moment of courage, a choice, a step of faith…
