The Fall

graciemc

Why is he so angry? How long will it last? How long will I have to wait for the dark man to pass?? It has taken too much from me facing the man behind the mask. I've fought at every angle and now I cannot breathe. How long will breathe hold before it has to leave??? Now here I stand right back at the same cliff... and I wonder how?? I've walked, I've crawled and I've crawled to walk, but still nothing. My heart has picked up!?!? Now what will I fight with? I can feel the cliff approaching and I know what it wants. My souls gives a whisper to my heart and says it's time. Anxiety, fear, a glance through a tear and I am scared to death!!! But I will not stay, I have to  do this afraid. Nothing or no one to hold on to, so I'll hold on to myself. I'm scared of the jump, but I need the fall. Land on my knees, never again will I crawl. I think I'll take a running start, get my feet ahead of my heart. Don't need to stop and think at all... If my heart is right it will catch up with my fall....
