Favorite Quote:
The eternal silence of these infinite spaces frightens me --Pascal


Living life just seems too dangerous
The border between safe and reckless
Is just too thin
I stay on the far side of safe
But I wish I would live
I wish I had the guts
To have fun

Give me the strength to let go

Give me the strength to jump
Give me the strength to fall into life
The fun kind, the reckless kind
The one where safety is behind me
Please catch me when I let go
And I promise I will never look back up
To the cliff that had once safely held me

This isn't about suicide. I hope you don't get that vibe. I just wrote this because I felt like I was living my life to the fullest.
