Anxiety is high
                                                  doubts are set
                                                  what ifs have been thought
                                                  but still you are shy

                                                  Decisions are made
                                                  fellings are hurt
                                                  insults are said
                                                  and paths have been laid

                                                  And time rolls on
                                                  and you learn new things
                                                  your body gets older
                                                  and you lose romance
                                                  but you gain new freinds
                                                  and your mind gets wiser
                                                  it goes so fast
                                                  but time rolls on

                                                  you meet the one
                                                  but you hesitate
                                                  and after sometime
                                                  you know shes the one
                                                  you face new problems
                                                  and you think you should run
                                                  but you stick around because the world scares you
                                                  to live all alone
                                                  without the ones you love

                                                  And time rolls on
                                                  and you learn new things
                                                  your body gets older
                                                  and you lose romance
                                                  but you gain new freinds
                                                  and your mind gets wiser
                                                  it goes so fast
                                                  but time rolls on

Indeed, hesitation is never good - but then neither is "settling" just because you don't wish to be alone.  How do you win?  Wise words.

I agree with Michael, this is a wonderful poem! Hope to see more from you

 "Glory remains unaware of my neglected dwelling where alone
I sing my tearful song which has charms only for me."
