Gut dropping falls
Dizzying ascent
It scares me
But I get back on
Forgive and forget
Care first for yourself
Pursue pleasure
Avoid pain.
Asynchronous
Dichotomies
Cannot achieve
Mutual satisfaction
Pain is inevitable
The price of living
paid in discomfort
And Uncertainty
A life of comfort
Is quiet and easy
An extraordinary life
Challenges the soul

Gut dropping falls
Dizzying ascent
It scares me
But I get back on
Forgive and forget
Care first for yourself
Pursue pleasure
Avoid pain.
Asynchronous
Dichotomies
Cannot achieve
Mutual satisfaction
Pain is inevitable
The price of living
paid in discomfort
And Uncertainty
A life of comfort
Is quiet and easy
An extraordinary life
Challenges the soul
Even though my head knows that the drop is coming, it doesn’t cease to be exciting. If the extraordinary was routine, what would be the point of pursuing it?
