I wrote this poem for the man I'm going to marry. He definitely caught me! Free Fall Standing on the edge Discovering fears deep inside The swirling abyss lies before me. Beckoning, Taunting, Calling my name. Slowly moving forward, Hanging on with both hands, my eyes closed. Afraid to slip, Afraid to see. A leap of faith: Plunging into the unknown. Total release. Complete surrender. Flying free. Falling fast. No holding back. Knowing you’ll be there to catch me. |

Sven, trust me, I'm holding on to him. The smile hasn't left my face in weeks and my ex husband has accused me of being "giddy".  )Ethome, thank you! |
