trepidation

a function
of this
compunction
the need for
the new
possibility
possibly a siren song
hint of anticipation
tantalizing trepidation
in the breath
between the now
and the next
as we let go
of the been
for the being
and it can be
distressing
or it can be
a blessing
or neither
or both
no knowing
without doing
no fro-ing
without to-ing
the happiness
never guaranteed
but still
it's worth pursuing
