I found myself hurtling, rushing through air
no ropes, no safety net
I was falling, a heady rush of oxygen
with no impact, and no pain
I found myself doubting, walking on water
no floaties, no life preserver
I was standing, staring deep into love
without sinking, and no fear
I found myself walking, surrounded by life
no certainties, no sure answers
I was living, trusting the words spoken
without failing, and no doubt
