20.2.2013

you waited too long,
and now its too late.
the time is up,
the countdown is over,
the finish line is in sight,
the end is near.
like pulling
a rug from
underneath me,
you took me
by surprise.
stumbling
unsure of my footing,
the ground is wobbly
beneath me.
like standing on
the edge of a
cliff
one slip
and
I fall.
down
down
down
into the looming
darkness.
but I will
find my
footing.
and i will be stable
and i will take
that leap
and fly down,
flying
and i will swim
to the
shore.
