One day I will do it
follow the path
do the thing
take the risk
launch that boat
navigate to the place
I truly want to be.
Whatever stops me cannot be
immovable surely as I myself
have placed it there. Others
think I’ve realized my dream
but this is only a diversion
that looks like the dream.
You’re doing what you love
they say and it is partly true
but partly only. One day
I will truly do it. I will.
I imagine I have needed all
this time to get ready
at least that is the nice thing
I will say about it.
