Unnamed poem

I stand at the boundaries of light and dark, love and hate, shades of gray
Perched over the cliffs of despair, staring at the sea of memories and saltine air
I feel the wind on my skin, a warm translucent coat, a hollow embrace, of invisible lace
In the distance is the forest of fears, standing tall, deep, constricting, fed by tears
A broken path leads me there, it's scattered with lost thoughts, emotions, cares
Do I run and hide or face my fears? A leap of faith or the road with wraiths?
I'm afraid to fall, I'm afraid to stand, I'm afraid to go, I don't think I can
The sky above filled with blues and reds, the ground below leads ahead
The clouds glide across hides beams of sun, cast shadows and shapes, mimics of fun
The sea calls me, with waves of liquid foam, the saline mist spray sets the tone
"Swim though my waves, hide in your memories"
"Close your eyes, lose yourself in my dark remedy"
"Forget your worries, you're mind will fade, in the brine you can lay"
I look at the path to the forest I fear, a voice of warning I can hear
"Walk the path, break your soles, lead to here, to unknowns"
"Nightmares and storms do abound, a warning of things to be found"
"Through the forest you can go, to the places only you know"
The voice fades away to the back of my mind, only my subconscious feeding me lines
Which do I choose? Should I play it safe or risk it all and lose?
Face my fears and pursue my dreams or stay in here with silent screams
I listen to my mind, my heart and my soul, all seem to disagree with nothing to show
Which path should I follow which choice should I make? What images will I see when I awake?
I have so much inside for someone to take, which choice would you make?
