The Precipice


Skirting the edge
Never getting close
Never committing
Never taking the plunge
No risk
No hurt
No love
Alone

Approaching the edge
The sheer gut-wrenching drop
The rocks
The beautiful surging blue-green
To risk
The hurt
For love
Intimacy

Poised on the precipice
Preparing to make the dive
Trusting to not be dashed and broken on the rocks
To splash into the inviting blue-green
To find peace
To have love
To be complete
To be with you
