The Leap

One step

It felt right, it was bright

All around me, within me, bright

Nothing in my bones said no

Seeing what was in front of me

Everything that passed, I left behind

Memories of everything, the Good, the Bad

The Unknown.

One step

The belief, the faith, the trust

Blinded me, like cloth wrapped around

What was said, what was done

My heart believed every word

My soul had the faith

My brain began to trust, then suddenly

It faded away

One step

This heart and soul of mine

Kept going, my brain telling me

Take the cloth off, body didn't listen

Music was playing, soul was singing

Heart was dancing, yet it was full of sorrow

Little did it know, that whispers came around

Filled with doubt, filled with hate, filled...

One step

Stopping before the edge

Ignoring the venomous whispers

I say out loud,

"This Leap of Faith, I take..

For my heart and soul knows.

It's okay if they're filled with sorrow,

They know our worth, they know the pain

They know compassion, they know.. Unconditional love."

One Leap of Faith

Darkness ensued, wrapping itself around

With clasped hands and a gentle whisper

Light implodes, softly

I have belief, faith

Now I have to trust, so I do

This broken heart of mine, mend with Gold,

Pain is temporary, love is eternity
