Fitful Steps on the Steep Trail

I left my peers
Though my laughs were real
I was excited
But that's all it was
While I was busy showing affection
My mind kept generating questions
Every time I climbed up those stairs
Till I sat on that swivel chair
I started to worry
What happens if I stay?

It was rare for my heart and mind to synchronize
So I took the chance to decide

Now, I'm out here
Taking fitful steps on the steep trail
A path I've never trodden before
Thought I'd only use my feet
Turns out I have to use my hands too
Sometimes it's sad and lonely
But I hope
These fitful steps on the steep trail
Will be over soon

A few times, I noticed
I was walking ahead of them
Then, I found myself looking at them
Shrouding my footprints with theirs
And as they walked past me
I wish I had realized it sooner—
I didn't belong there
And it was never their problem
But mine alone
