I don’t know what is on the other side of my fear and that is often what keeps me from moving.
I don’t know what is on the other side of my doubt and that is often what keeps me from crossing over.
I don’t know what is on the other side of my pain and that is often what keeps me trapped.
And so life changes like the water in the river. I have no clear view of the other side.
Still I wonder if I traded my fear for hope maybe I would take a small step.
And I wonder if I gave faith a chance maybe I would cross over my doubt.
Mostly, I wonder if I allowed joy to rest near my pain could I feel a bit more free.
Written for a CD Project with the band Erin Rogue for a song interlude about the changing river and changes in life. CD due for release late Summer 2009.
