The view from the top
Both terrifying and beautiful.
As I approached the ledge, I felt afraid
I knew that after the ensuing step everything would be different
The plunge was not the product of a "Leap Of Faith", but more a Gentle Push that forced me to believe
And the farther I fell, the more I believed.
The fear I felt at first, quickly disappeared
And left behind a feeling of excitement
A feeling of true happiness
And though I was moving at such an alarming speed, I've never felt so comfortable in all my life
And as I fell, I couldn't help but think about the distance I've travelled
The moments I've passed
The beauty I've seen.
And I realise that I will never again relive that initial view
I will never again gaze down in wonder and fear at the seemingly endless below.
But as I stare ahead and see no sign of any end
I'm reminded that there's so much left to come
I pray that I never reach the bottom
Because when I fell
I fell for you
