Climbing up a mountain
The anticipation killing me
And then
Going up a rickety ladder
Fearing for my life
It would be so easy to fall right now
But then the warm embrace of arms helping me up
Standing on the edge of cliff
Contemplating if I want to jump
Feeling excitement and fear at the same time
Should I jump?
What if I don't jump far enough and fall on a rock?
So many questions swirling in my head
Pats on the back and encouraging words
" You can do this" they say
Oh gosh, here goes nothing
I jump
Wow, will I ever hit the water
splash
What a relief
I did it!
I'm proud
So this is what it feels like to be alive
"Please let me never forget this feeling" I think to myself
