One Step at a Time – A Poem

Why does it feel like

There’s a cloud of rain

Within me

That awaits the right time

To erupt?

How can something invisible

Be this tangible?

I feel the weight of it all,

Whatever it is,

On my shoulders.

Most of the days

I feel like giving up 

But then I tell myself 

One step at a time.

At the moment,

I can’t describe 

What I’m feeling 

With words.

Like the languages

Are yet to construct 

The words for these emotions.

It is heavy, but unseen. 

It’s exciting, yet scary. 

I want to cry it out,

But I want to hold on to it too.

Maybe I should

Let my eyes

Drop the tears

While I keep on going

One step at a time.
