The Jump

I saw the cliff , the void below
with Unexplored lands that Laid below
And I was alon
I came to the edge
Not knowing what laid below
only the half heard whispers of fearful things
my feet touched the edge
then I heard a voice
I look over the cliff
There was a soft light from below
It held comfort and hope in it's glow
And I knew that the time was near
that I should jump and take the dare
I leaped over the edge of that now crumbling cliff
falling into the arms I known waited below
I was Looking forward to the wonders that now held me alof
For you were there waitin
And I was no longer alone.
