"There comes a time in life when you have to let go of the pointless drama. Surround yourself with people who make you laugh so hard you forget the bad and focus solely on the good. After all, life is too short to be anything but happy."

“Just fall. I’ll catch you.”
The words never said
The words that would make it
Effortless
To let go
As you stand
Vulnerable
Out on a cliff
Ready to plunge
Into the unknown

You dangle your toes over the edge
Into your fears
Which fade away
As pleasure tingles your toes

Trusting your instinct,
You fall
