Jump

It whispers in your ear
The voice inside your head
Tells you maybe try
For that little extra something
Stopped by the fear
Safer playing dead
Blocked, asking why
Desires always hunting
Settle no more
Close enough to risk
Just live and let live
Breathing just a breath
A breath with no life
So jump and lose that wind
Dispose of restricting strife
The jump where life begins

The Coaster

Thrill-seeking nerves Determined the risks Convinced to climb Choice is made I'm standing in the line Just pacing in my mind Racing all the time Waiting for the climb The line moves closer and closer Just passed the height required poster I've crossed the prior boxes Now pay for my admission Ticket in hand I go Next stop is the one I know Step up to my spot I sit and here's my shot Click click click It jerks with every inch But forward on it goes I'm moving on the ride My breath is heavy but steady I know that I am ready It's rising slowly up The work is almost here And just as the height is near I can feel it's so unclear The max is out of reach Farther than the ground line Here the cart has stalled And all before the crawl Was it all for nothing I'm sitting here on this track Asking not to go back but up Will this ride ever complete Or will I never reach the feat Stuck. Stuck?
