Precipice of Love

Open the Door

By Cindy CalderPublished 3 years ago Updated 3 years ago 1 min read

Do not hesitate.

It only comes but once.

You feel it move,

Permeating, vibrating.

It’s in the air you breathe,

Every particle of dust,

Every movement made,

Every shiver felt.

*

Do not hesitate.

A rare opportunity awaits.

This moment will not occur

Nor cross your path twice.

Grab it tightly,

Clasp it to your bosom,

And run wildly

Toward the unknown.

*

Do not hesitate.

A rare glimpse

Of love’s fortuitous happiness

Miraculously chooses you.

Yes, you….

Standing amidst your doubts.

Don’t pause overmuch

Or linger with indecisiveness.

*

Do not hesitate.

The chance is nigh

Within your grasp.

Which path will you choose

As you teeter totter

On the cusp of love?

Stretch out your hand,

Unlock the door.

*

Do not hesitate.

You should realize

What awaits you on the precipice.

Unbridled joy and love

Could be yours

If you but beckon

Them with all sincerity

And with your soul.

*

Do not hesitate.

Be emboldened

Until at long last

The universe is yours.

Idolize seconds spent

In spinning evolution

For into the rare eclipse

Of love will you fall.
