My brightest hope; My darkest fear
Standing paralyzed as it draws near
The fun and games will blow away
At the start of that one ultimate life-changing day
And it seems to be coming so fast
A part of me begins to yearn for the past
With it rests all my bursting dreams
With it lies my deepest doubts threatening to rip at the seams
Excitement at what could be
Despair at what could be
It's the one thing no one can see
Every part of my aching soul awaits for the moment it all comes true
This growing dread telling me it'll take away everything I thought I knew
The possibilities are limitless and endless in that unknown place
The infinite failures toe the edge of shadows, hoping I'll fall out of grace
The future is so very near
And with it, my brightest hope and darkest fear

It reminds me a little of the sentiment I was trying to capture in my poem?
What do you think?
I agree, they both express the same emotion, one of apprehension.
This is really pretty, I think we all have that anticipatory feeling for the future
Thank you, it's definitely something everyone shares.
May those brightest hopes outshine your darkest fears.
A poetic line of your own!
I can relate! Hopes and dreams when coming true are exciting yet scary at the same time.
made me think of an interview
that could go really well
and lead to a job
you've always wanted
to do
or go badly
so sadly
the days before are exciting
but nauseating too
