Clarity
October 2, 2010
My heart is wide open
My head is clear
My eyes are shut
I take the plunge
It feels so free to be this close
To feel the wind through my hair
The soft whisper of air across my skin
The briny deep beneath
I am free falling
As I look behind me across my life
I see past memories
They are following me slowly straggling
as I submerge into the abyss
my heart full
my head empty <3
