I'm not scared.

Not worried.

Fearless?

No.

Maybe.

I don't know.

I have hopes and dreams.

Plenty of regrets.

Plenty of vulnerability.

I'm not afraid.

Not afraid of singing off key.

Not afraid of dancing off beat.

Not afraid of bombing.

Not afraid of the judgment.

It comes with the territory.

The domain of the unknown.

The realm of possibility.

The turf of transformation.

Out of bounds.

Lost.

Wandering.

Trial.

Error.

Broken down.

Getting knocked out.

Coming to.

Slowly standing back up.

Wobbly.

Then less shaky.

Hanging in.

Stronger.

Than ever before.
