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.
