This is a poem about achieving what you want most in life, whatever that may be.

I hope you guys like it :)

I close my eyes

Breath

The breeze kisses my skin

I sun gazes down, waiting

I’m waiting too, breathing

Waiting to be ready for this

But no one is ever ready for the jump

The fall

I take another deep breath

Still waiting

I know I’m not ready

But then I’ll never be ready

Run

I feel the need to run

So I go, just like that

And when I reach the edge…

I jump

The breeze turns into a hard wind as a fall

Unforgiving, pushing me away

The sun still waits

So I close my eyes and will myself to BE

Then I’m flying, like a bird right up in the sky

Or not

I guess I’ll never know until I make the jump

So I jump
