my fingers
bleed while I hang on to the cliff.
my feet
are dug into
the granite,
my toes curled.
my muscles ache and burn
from holding
me tightly
to the side of this mountain.
i'm afraid to look
down, but finally,
with the sweat pouring
into my eyes, I do.
I see that
i'm only two feet off
the ground.
just that far, what was
all that fear and worry
about.
I jump.
