Poem: Leap of Faith
Get yourself out there
Be consistent
Interact with others
Make connections
Speak, write, comment
Find your tribe
Hone your craft
Practice the rules
then break them
in a way that makes it
all seem brand new.
But it takes effort
It takes patience
It takes time.
Laying the groundwork
for something long term
can be difficult
heartbreaking
frustrating
No one seems to notice
it seems that you are out there
in a vacuum.
Why do you do this?
Is it worth reaching out
only to find silence?
How long does it take?
Why should I make the first step?
The instinct to withdraw
to insulate from hurt
is understandable.
But to turn wish into reality
is not an easy thing:
close your eyes and leap.
