Not That Bad

We all stand on the edge

some sort of edge

looking into something we

are scared of falling into


We all peer up

at some height

that we wish to scale

only not knowing

where to start


We all walk

roads with holes

dusty roads , with pot holes

skinning our knees

looking into the distance

knowing , hoping theres not much more

to go

Not everyone gets back up

Not everyone plunges and feels that
the water was really not that cold

Not everyone gives themselves the chance to

Know

that the mountains were not that high

that the road…..really wasn't that long

Life really wasn't that bad
