Disquiet

I have everything I need
Yet why this disquiet?
I have money (as much as I could reasonably want, anyway.
Who ever has enough?)

I have a love
The love that is considered
The destination of life.
Or is that in fairy tales?

I have myself, free
I have happiness and peace.
I have everything I have ever wanted
Except one thing.

And I know what it is. Yet
I lack the courage to go in search…
To risk much that I have for a dream.
Will I ever start?

I've found myself in a similar situation too. I pray that you get the courage, or whatever it is that is required for you, to take the first step in the direction of your wish.

Did you have the courage to take that step? If you did, how did it turn out?

What I require is not courage... just a hard kick on my lazy ass to get started. And tonnes of inspiration and perseverance.
