Jumping

My soul is screaming to jump
With no fear of hitting the ground
Trusting that I will be caught
My heart no longer earthly bound

But staring at the edge I’m struck
Terror seeps into my core
Drowning any objectivity
My mind and heart deeply at war

Frozen before I’ve even begun
The potential lain ahead
Leering and taunting me to jump
While suffocating me with dread

If I never jump I may never know
If I’ve found my answering call
But what if I jump with utter trust
And instead I only fall?
