thirty-four

In this moment, there is nothing else to do.
There is no where else to go.
No where to hide; no where to run.

Any attempt to escape would brand me a hypocrite-
A chicken, a coward.

And so, with a deep breath-
I look forward,
And my sight follows the path
Until it ends abruptly at the cliff.

All I see is air- space.
All I hear is the wind- the emptiness.
But my heart believes in more, in You.

In the quiet before any action, I breath:
"I trust in You; I believe You are there."

I run; and at the edge I leap-

---

And the whole time, I've been safe in Your hands.
