In rushing hour I find my way
to the stairs
Leading me to a different world
of chaos and peace
In anticipation I stand before a choice
Shall I proceed
Taking a deep breath, waiting, seconds feeling
like hours
My choice influencing who I am
Should I follow or lead
My heart pounding
My feet like lead as I take the first step
Step 1 - Entering a different world
Step 2 - Getting to know my way
Step 3 - Meeting other people
Step 4 - Getting over obstacles
Step 5 - Be myself
Step 6 - Counting stops here
I know where this path will lead
Wisdom coming with each step
I will go with the flow and follow
where life will lead
The steps a test of life
Freed to be who I want
