NaPoWriMo

We get Sundays off from the A-Z Challenge, but not so for NaPoWriMo. Regina gets honest in today's poem.





The Guilt of Honesty

Looking over a cliff
and if I don't take the first step
I will fall
or be pushed by circumstance
into the jagged rocks below.

 But if I jump
calculate my velocity,
I will hit
the cool water
below,

where I can swim
uninhibited,
free.
Maybe even bask on a rock
cleansing in sun and water,

before I climb
back up the cliff face
inch by inch.

And onto the path
that Leads
Home.
