I’m afraid to lose myself in unfamiliar places,
to be another one, of those desolate faces.
I’m scared of getting lost, of being isolated,
and disconnected from those I love.
I’m anxious about the unknown, the uncertain,
and the journey’s unexpected twists and turns.
I worry about all the things that could go wrong,
and of all the ways, a trip could prolong.
But despite all of my phobias, I’m obliged to try,
to break out of this cocoon and spread my wings to fly.
[PROMPT BELOW BY: ElRoyPoet, 2023]
When I’m flying so high,
I might fall off that plane.
But the tragedy is—
that I will bring everyone down—around me;
everyone who isn’t grounded;
everyone who dares to defy the law of gravity.
The only journey, is the one within. By: Rainer Maria Rilke
