Jump

"If so and so jumped off a bridge, 

would you?"

"It's called a leap of faith. 

You just have to jump."

Standing on the ledge. 

Heart beating out my chest.

Messages mixed and nowhere to go. 

I give in, give up, take the risk.

Fear, destruction, delivery.

Falling, rushing, zooming

Toward me, to me, through me.

Snap. 

Pull. 

Reverse. 

Delivery, distraction, denial.

Slipping, shrinking, gone. 

Some tell you not to jump. 

Some tell you to jump and believe. 

But what happens when you jump 

and you believe 

and you still end up 

back where you started?
