I went on the high dive

When I was a little girl

Did I even jump?

I know I did one year

It was so scary

So much fun at the same time

I’m pretty sure I walked up those steps

I know I at least went on the board

Did I walk to the end of the board?

Did I jump?

Were people yelling at me ?

Someone told me to hurry up

I couldn’t walk backwards

I couldn’t get off

Who is going to catch me?

I don’t think I could really swim

What if I don’t come up to the top

They said I’d float to the top

I know I practiced the doggy paddle

But the water is 12 feet deep

The water is so deep

Jump In the water

Stop holding up the line

I jumped

I had to jump

I came back up to the top

I know I did

I went off the deep end

A couple of times

I’m okay

You’ll be just fine

Take your time

You don’t have to

Second guess yourself

Say what you want

Do what you feel

Be who you are

Act like you already have

Everything you desire

And love how your mind just created your beautiful memory of a yesterday within today for your tomorrow to be seen by many.

Share love

Love heals

Love is you
