to many cliffs
throughout my life.
my fingers digging into
the side of dirt and stone
unwilling to let go
of what i thought
would save me.
a job, a home, a love
that wasn't right.
how wrong i was to
hold on so long, fearing
the drop below.
only to find that the fall
was only two feet
off the ground.
where i landed
without a scratch.
how foolish
it was to not let go.
