I'm a girl in my second decade
Amidst the vast chaotic brocade
Half-hearted, I set on foot
By land or by water, I am aloof
Straight faced, I look brave
At the back of my mind I am scared
Where do I start? forward right, forward left?
If I step backwards, will it get me there?
How do I know where to go
Shall I run or shall I walk?
Knees and palm on the ground
Is this how I must trace the world abound?
How do you chase the unknown?
If i look at the stars will I recall?
Will my heart beat at the sight of it?
Or must I make another and learn to live it?
