Gamble

There’s darkness all around,

And no path in sight,

Scared to take the first step

Afraid of what lies ahead.

Bewildered by doubt and uncertainty,

Just take a deep breath,

And start walking,

Fear no valleys,

Bother not about walls,

Care not for dead ends,

Just keep walking and stop nowhere,

One step after another.

Expect nothing, keep walking,

Because what you meet

May be beyond thought

It may make you,

Or destroy

But can you just wait at the beginning

And let life go by?

For all we know,

Life is a game,

For who fear not a tumble

‘Cause victory is theirs

Who will gamble
