I take a big breath
should I just jump in?
The water might be cold
it may pull me under
I've been here before
got my feet wet
Then I shook my head
and ran
It was too scary
too final
Sometimes it feels safer
not to know
But then the curiosity
weights down my heart
So here I go
going to try to jump in
This time...
with both feet.
By Lynn Hahn
Both deep and delightful. Interesting that the final thought is still 'try' even with 'both feet'. But I commend the honesty.
lovely poem Lyn
Love the line
But then the curiosity
weights down my heart
wonderful stuff
