Off You Go

I have come to that road,
That I have been waiting for, for so long,
And I look down it and see how long it is,
And I'm not sure I'm that strong.

Every success stares down the eye of critique,
And only succeeds when it finally don't care,
For nothing worth doing's been done in the past,
Or that doesn't require some sort of dare.

And once you've started walking, that's not the end.
You need not continue, but if you do,
It's like you're always starting from the beginning,
Cause not til you're dead do you truly get your due.

And it's alright,
The best thing is to just close your eyes,
Fall backward into the Universe's arms,
And if you don't, well, at least you tried.
