I Sat on the edge,

It was as if, I was falling but… not falling,
The wind would throw its self against me,
I would not let it push me over the edge,
A tree branch reached out to me,
I grabbed a hold of it,
It was strong and sturdy, as if it was placed there for a purpose…
The winds where wild, I wanted to fall into them...
But I held tightly to the tree branch,
The branch was safe, but the winds, oh the winds…
They where wild and free, unforgiving to anyone standing in their way,
I let go and jumped into the winds,
unknowing of what tomorrow would bring…
Would I lose everything or gain the dreams I had once had,

The winds carried me off, but all my dreams where within my grasp…
