Standing on that ledge, I look down.
A thousand thoughts rush through my mind
Tearing me apart, I know not what to think
Should I listen, should I not?
Think, think, think, think.
Is this fear or just a passing wind within my mind?
I try to see, but love is blind! Is it not?
One step back and I’m safe, one step forth I am free.
Will he catch me if I fall, or will I fall forever long?
He is strong enough for sure, but will he be here to the end?
Who will win the battle, my heart or mind?
I hold the pen that writes my fate, have I forgotten how to write?
Leaping blindly into faith can be so tempting at times.
I want to jump. Should I jump? Should I stay, but if I stay I’ll never know.
The unknown world that we call “love” awaits.
Am I brave enough to go?
With eyes closed, I jump with one last breath.
What’s done is done, and so I go.
Falling with my eyes closed tight, I wait for his embrace.
The fall seems far too long, but I wait.
Still I fall, into nothing, my eyes closed all I feel is black.
It did not seem so far away from that ledge, yet still I fall.
Weightless, hopeless, when will I land into his heart.
I fall so fast my thoughts get left behind, I start smile.
Curious I peak. I do not see what I thought I’d see.
I cannot think, I cannot laugh, I cannot speak.
My hesitation turned to dust, who would have ever known!
Happiness fills my hearts, as I finally see the truth.
Fall, fall, fall, fall I do not.
Falling in love does not mean to fall, but means to fly.
So here I fly, love has given me eternal wings.
Free at last, to fly and be, it was love that set me free.
Together at last, my heart beats fast with his hand upon my chest.
It is here I feel at home, in his arms.
For home is not a place, but the energy of two.
And with that energy comes a world that we call life.
Nevermore will it be “I”, forever more it will be “we.”
I hold all the power in the world through love.
Nothing but ourselves could loose that grip.
In this new freedom I find safety, as I look up at the ledge and laugh.
Inspired, I dream. Because in love, I can only dream.
What is life without dreams, it is life upon that ledge!
Of all my dreams, I chose him. No other dream would be worth living.
Free, free, free, we fly.
I let him steal half my heart, in exchange for half of his.
Together we will never fall, we will always fly.
No destination holds us back, no boundaries up ahead,
Long forgotten is that ledge, it’s just us and us alone.
Off we fly, into the a forever unfolding path.
Filled with adventure, despair, love, and happiness.
Blind to imperfections and filled with passion.
For love offers the most wonderful ride of all!
I have remembered how to write and so we write our story.
A story that will never end.
A story like no other, because we are uniquely two.
A story worth writing, forever.
