Not So Reckless Abandon
another poem that isn't mine
a roller coaster where you
forget to buckle your seatbelt but remember to
lift up your hands
tumbling down the rabbit hole but
embracing the curiosity of the unknown
skydiving without a
parachute because you know that you have
wings
starting to number the
stars but knowing that
forever will come
before you are finished
**that is one of the most incredible poems I have ever heard. I haven't been able to write decent poetry for quite some time now. Today I came thisclose to submitting a poem to a magazine/website/book (www.teenink.com) but I chickened out. Maybe tomorrow I'll be brave enough.
