"Jump!"

My mind screams

But I'm afraid to fall.

"Take the leap"

My gut says;

But what if I lose it all?

"Seize the chance"

Desire yells;

What if it's already gone?

"Get off the edge!"

Anxiety pleads;

But what if I want to stay?

"You'll be hurt again"

My scars tell me;

But what if it will be okay?

"Wait till you're sure"

Uncertainty advises;

Will there be another chance the next day?

"You'll be the fool"

The world warns;

But what if they're all wrong?

"Your wounds won't heal"

Hurt cries out;

But aren't the old ones gone?

"Why not?"

My beating heart asks;

So I jump, and take the plunge.
