Skydiving

On the edge

Flying higher, higher

soaring through the sky

past innumerable memories.

The air thins -

the doors open, beckoning.

Look, nod.
Maybe it's scary;

but it's definitely worth it.

And besides,

we've got nothing left to do, to lose

so we jump.

Vow

I will support you

in everything that you feel.

I will show you

to learn from every mistake.

I will teach you

to see the world, in all it's grandeur and beauty.

I will always be there for you.

Keep You Safe

You hear the voices calling

I know it's not your time

You say you want to leave this world

but to leave would be a crime.

I want to wrap you up inside

Try to keep you safe

because allowed to roam yourself

your life will go to waste.

I think of all the choices -

decisions, things you'll do

The gorgeous, happy options

if you'll only start anew.

Stop looking at the negative

Quit pushing me away

Because no matter what you do

You know, for sure, I'll stay.

Don't dump the water out

Keep the glass half full

If you let me help you out,

I bet you'll keep your soul.
