AFRAID

Loud is the knock on the door,
Becoming hard to ignore,
Excuses have all run out,
No room left for doubt,
Option are hard to find,
Paths not so reclined,
Fears are aplenty,
The ideas empty,
Call is for marathon,
Sprint is all we want,
Why are we so unsure,
To peep through that door,
What do we await?

Why are we so afraid?
