flipping
head over heels, sailing through the air,
defying nature’s strongest force

sprinting

fibrillating
barely alive,
but still hanging on

shocking
pain as i awaken
from the blackest slumber of heartache

blinding
light pierces my pupils
as i begin to see clearly for the first time

frightening
the prospect of trusting
what if i get hurt?

comtemplating

what will i decide?

choosing
a different path this time
no turning back

learning
from my mistakes,
to love again

following
my heart
forevermore

surrendering
completely
to the greatest force ever known

embracing
the future
my destiny awaits

falling
again, because
