Jumping without a Safety Net

Jumping without a Safety Net

A Poem by Donald
"

Do you live with obscurity and insecurity in your life. Sometimes you must take that leap to gain what you truly want. Can you do it and are you willing to take the chance. I am with this as proof.

"

Are you willing,

will you take that leap,

to take that chance,

to succeed or fail .

 

That is the question of the day,

it is the turning point in your life,

where you decide to take a chance,

to learn to embrace life.

 

Or would you rather,

just sit back and hide,

to pretend that you don’t exist,

and just live in the shadows.

 

Jumping without a safety net,

is a fact of life,

you cannot hide,

without even trying.

 

You have to take that chance,

a chance to get noticed,

a chance to be recognized,

for who you really are.

 

To live to your full potential,

in this world,

to say what you want to say,

and to live the way you want to.

 

Life is not a fairy tale,

there are no happy endings,

but there are dangers out there,

to be faced and endured.

 

But most of all survived,

for death is a very real possibility,

for anything you try,

but that is a fact.

 

You can fail and die,

or you can live and grow,

to a life to be fulfilled,

and to a destiny to be found.

 

But risk is the nature of life,

and without risk,

there can be no reward,

and no future.

 

Can you afford to live in fear,

of rejection,

of living a full life,

with the love you need.

 

To reach for that dream,

or that love you truly desire,

and the future that you dream of,

for you to truly live.
