Taking A Dive

I'm standing on the high board
The board is made of choice
It's here I'll consider my options
Before I take my plunge and chosen course

I'm standing at the edge
My toes curl round the end
I need to make a decision
A push from a helpful friend

My hands & arms outstretched
An arrow to my destination
The cool pool water is calling me
I tremble with hesitation

It's now of never
I bounce and tuck
I plunge into the depth
No turning back

I'm swimming to the surface
I kick my legs and keep afloat
I'm deep with my chosen course
I hope this time it works

Walking On Ice

Walking on ice. Not closing my eyes. Holding my breath. I don't even want to wear this dress. Walking on ice. Freezing yes, but not to death. Putting all the love and hate on hold.

Sailing

Confusion, I'm alone in a boat, floating on the open sea. My only possessions are a map of endless paths and a compass. The needle always turns north But the direction of north changes.

Free Falling

Goodbye every moment, That was full of negativity, From now on, I am dancing, To the endless beat of gravity.

As my mind buzzes of all the things I could do. But my mind is pin pointed on to one thing mainly. It is silly but I focus on it. No one knows what my mind has going on but you could try and guess.
