I was once fearful of heights.
I'd close my eyes in roller coaster rides,
held my breath once up high.
Never did I enjoy nor pay attention to the sight.

But then one day, I just decided to fight the fears.
Opened my eyes and just spread my wings,
Imagined I was a bird taking her flight...
Suddenly realized I was missing a life.

A life filled with pure adrenaline rush,
ecstatic happiness and wonder.
While enjoying a view that without gears
We mere humans cannot ponder.

At the end of the day, I felt really grateful
For taking the leap out of my comfort zone
And realized that the best things in life
Could be what seem to be unlovable
