I took a whole heck of a lot of poetic license with this poem. Someone did say something very similar to me but I really just wanted to express my feeling of wanting to feel alive and to do something daring more than anything.
Flying Leap
You told me to take care
that is was not safe or wise to
tempt someone as dangerous as you
I am not afraid of you
I would welcome the risk
would love to dance on the edge
and love to fall to the rocks below
the end would not be pretty
but the ride down makes me
want to jump again and again
safety is a prison where
nothing exciting ever happens
I want to feel my blood race
I want to feel alive
So thanks for the warning but
I think it's a nice day
to take a flying leap!
