Walk On Water Poem by Mark. A Heathcote

Your fears and failures are just stepping stones
over not-so tranquil waters.
These are the places where you have frozen,
fearing your every next shaky step.
Turn around and see the shoreline you have already left,
And look how far behind you it now is.
It is a distant memory in the twilight of yesterday
and what leaps and bounds you have made.
Yes, mistakes were plentiful, but you
overcame each obstacle to be where you are today,
and tomorrow you'll feel for a moment
that tells you you can walk on water. Everything
is within your grasp, and that anything is possible.
You'll see the only hand-up you ever needed to clasp
was already inside of you. It has guided you
not so that it may abandon you. But to always catch you,
whatever you do. There is ballast in your heart and soul
that'll carry you above almost anything, and all you need to do
is put one foot in front of another and believe you are blest.
