No Regrets
Lauren Taub Cohen
Gusts of self-doubt swirl
within my cavernous mind
and the thick sludge of stagnancy
weighs heavily upon my heart.
Did I think it would be easier?
Well, yes, just a bit.
How else could I have found the courage
to escape the deadening drag of inertia
and tear into the unknown
with only the clarity of intent
to light the way?
