Leap of Faith
Again, I’m falling, though the sky,
The ground seems to draw
Closer, but it looks rough and raw,
My limbs stretch towards the earth, afraid to die,
I wait for it to catch me with its spikes.
I crash to the earth,
The ground trying to repel me,
Cutting me, unable to flee
The rejection, I have no worth,
This place will supply me no true love.
I finally rise,
And try to run, escape this pain,
But the jagged rocks cut my feet, no hope for safe domain
Away from here; yet escape seems like certain demise,
Like the stabbing rocks cry for me to stay.
My willpower fades,
I want to stay, my footsteps slow,
I hear a voice, it pleads, the sound so low,
The sound cutting like blades,
Through my desperate heart.
Then, before me, the path alters,
The rocks and thorns fall away,
But to my dismay,
A towering waterfall, my step falters,
I stop to avoid my doom.
But there’s no where to go,
And if I stay, I will forever be alone,
Falsely loved, no place to call home,
What I must do, I know,
I take a step, and another, and another.
I approach the edge, praying to stay alive,
I close my eyes,
Telling myself lies
To calm me, and then I dive
Into oblivion.
Countless times I have taken this plunge,
Given my whole, with no reward,
Disregarded, not adored,
More a desperate stumbling lunge,
A leap of faith for hurt and pain.
But, now, I fall into a river of cloud,
Soft and doting,
I lay floating,
My heart beats loud,
As the river holds me close.
Like this I stay,
For eternity,
Finally, someone loves me,
That I can say,
For my fall has proved it true.
