Standing on the edge
cool green pool below
warm glow in my stomach
adrenalin searing my veins.
I want to jump but
fear grips me.
Can I leap far enough
to clear the rocks?
Are there ledges
hidden below your surface
waiting to break me?
Or when I vault out
into the empty sky
will you be there to catch me?
Will I plunge into
your soft cool embrace?
A choice.
Commitment.
Falling free...
