Do

Staring straight,
no looking back,
freezing time,
from past attacks.

Blinders on,
no side-eye glance,
focused views,
leading the dance.

Embraced goals,
will turn to gold,
when intent,
outflows the mold.

Grab a dream,
do not distract,
make it big,
with huge impacts.

Fluttered wish,
should reach the sky.
Unframed hopes,
learn how to fly.

Take a chance,
lead with self-care.
Stalled to wait,
until you dare.
