#leap
Where, when, how?
no better place than,
Here
And
Now.
don't wait for the right moment,
it will never come.
The sun could have imploded,
and we wouldn't know for
eight. minutes.
Don't waste your nights dreaming,
spend your days, doing.

tiny steps for tiny thinking
all a sudden
unexpected
big leaps
where you was just cruising

Idk What it is,
But It Is,
Seems Terrifying,
But Questionable?
Is It There,
Or Not?
If My hands Hold it,
Then Where Is It,
For The Ones,
Without It,
Seems Unfair,
To me,
It's A Choice,
Wheter to Stay,
The Same,
The Usual,
Or Take A Leap,
Leap Like Icarus,
And I Could Fly,
But If I Fall,
I Would Still Be Above,
Then Where I am Now,
Where I am Now.

Skipping along the lines of each street, like a sweeping frenzy.
Kicking dust up, filling the heavens with our earthly vessels.
Breathing and singing, filling these earthly vessels with heavenly domain!
Chapters riddle with jubilance and glee.
Cannot hold a man down, when he is free indeed.
Sarcasm flee, as chapters unwind.
Hold my tea, I have a few moves to make.
Grinding my nose in the stone.
Count each brick as the wall is repaired.
Enemies get to smitten, each cowering lie escaping my hair.
Cause they curse my bread, only to choke on the shock.
See hear, what doesn't **** you makes you stronger.
Because of Jesus, I shan't die to anything~

She was a ray of
sunshine; someone
you could easily
call inspiring.
She reached to me
and she gave hope.
"If you don't jump
you'll never get
over the hurdles."
and so for her,
everyday,
I leap.

In thee it flies, down thee it sighs
There got thee back to the leap
of graceful nihilism we dwell upon
of forgottened veil unfolds in.
Confessed, the sin invites.
In me it strikes, down me it ties
Cuz’ ain’t you a stranger too?
Absurdity afloating back and forth,
Alienation flattering be and not
Nauseated, the chestnut tree sprouts.
In hell it inane, down hearth it ablaze
Until the sprakle’s all but gone
Not in the way off the grounded What
But on the sheer of That it is
Unhindered, the cradling halo fades.
In blue it prattles, down black it blusters
Can’t the passenger paint a red eye?
Sailboat shivering on the sea
Salvation shotting at the sky
Stumbled, the fallen angel flees.
From a whisper sinking so close away:
Here’s a flight doomed to fall
a leap led to lost
But I’ll show you how

One day I want to climb
to the highest place I can find
stand face to face with danger
and meet freedom in its eyes
see the vastness of the blue sky
and the stars as they shine
take a leap into life
and embrace death as mine

You call me to step out on the ledge
"I will catch you, I'll make good on my pledge"
And Lord I trust you, but I'm filled with fear
'Cause I can't see you even though I know you're near
Come to the edge and be not unbelieving, but believe
So, slowly I approach the edge of the unknown
You push me and, into the air, I find myself thrown
Expecting to fall, expecting to die
Surprised to find that, instead, I fly!
It takes faith to walk upon the waters of the ocean
It takes faith to learn that kind of deep devotion
It takes faith to trust when the senses fail
And faith that, through it all, life and love prevail
It takes faith when we step across that line
That He will lift us up and all will be fine
It takes faith, it takes patience, it takes love
But we will rise up on wings like eagles and learn to fly above
Lord, you call us to the edge and ask us to jump. We can't always see you. Help us to trust and have faith that you are always there and will never let us down. Fear often holds us back from reaching our full potential and some fear is healthy. It helps keep us safe and out of danger, but sometimes we need a little push. You know just what we need Lord and when. Push us just a little, help us have that faith, and trust (and just a little bit of pixie dust?), take that leap of faith and learn to fly! we ask this and all things in the name of the Father and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen

I am Icarus as I yearn to fly,
I am Icarus as I sore through the sky,
I am Icarus as I want more and more,
I am Icarus and the sky, I Adore!
I am Icarus as I tend to forget
I am Icarus and later seem to regret
I am Icarus and greed gets the best of me
I am Icarus and only a fall can break me free
Even when I'm gone, my absence will hurt them,
Even when I'm gone, generational will be my name,
Even when I'm gone, I will leave a mark,
My wings burnt and withered- Illuminating yet Dark!
Reliant on aesthetics, I tend to forget nature,
I can't bypass it, Afterall- Human is my stature,
Such madness over crossing human bounds you might ask,
Penetrating limitations might be my greatest task.
Damnation and Mockery- my reward for such foolishness,
Satisfaction and Idolation- I yearn for completeness
My wings might be a commodity,
But my flight is a necessity,
You might forget or might you'll remember me
The leap I took and what completed me
I am Icarus and you might call me a fool,
I am Icarus or you might think my act was cool,
Well It doesn't matter to you, Does it?
In the end I'm just a fragment in you memories!
But for me and for generations to come,
I AM ICARUS!

Seeds of doubt churn with streams of hurt
Leaving it's mark from brain to heart like ruts in plowed dirt
It all collects and pools, a bottomless oddity here
Who's the capture, who's the prisoner? That's never been clear
Up to the moment life boils over the razors edge
Ribbons of crimson spill quickly, careening off the ledge
You had to have known it's all hollow, must I follow?
Must I always question while you threaten the finality of every tomorrow?

Seeds of doubt churn in streams of hurt
Blazing trails from brain to heart
It all collects and pools deep
Turning me prisoner
Before life spills over the razors edge
Ribbons of red spill over, off the ledge
Must I follow?
Must I alway question the reality of every tomorrow?
Who wants to trade me for this sorrow?
Who has a reset button I can barrow?
No one?
Thought so
I'll just go

You ever wonder how bugs
get trapped in those light fixtures?
Why do they do it?
Don't they see the collection
of corpses through the glass?
Why do they squeeze through the
tight opening between
metal and paint?
Why gnaw through caulking and
electrical tape if only
to join the masses at the base
of the ceiling light?
It's Icarus, reincarnate.
I think I'm one of those bugs,
but I'm not Icarus.
I'm more ignorant, more naive,
if anything, stupid, because
I know of Icarus.
I was told the tale.
Icarus made it.
He had no moral from which
to draw his conclusion.
Beside himself with desire, he
grew up with no such
cautionary tale.
But I did.
And yet I fly anyway,
understanding that my wings will melt,
scared that my wings will melt,
knowing the wax will burn my back and yet
fearful of the pain.
My mother always asked me,
"If your friends jumped off of a bridge,
would you jump, too?"
I tell her "no", of course, but
if I was told that
beneath the shallow waters at
the bottom of the bridge
was the promise of success,
it wouldn't matter how many
mangled guts littered the
rocky shore beneath.
I would jump.
If only to touch success for
a second before
I, too, joined the masses at the base
of the ceiling light.

Dare I spend my time with you
puncture my soul with your deep breath
feel the pain in your feet
walking the Earth and the universe with such love?
Dare I spend time with you
and risk falling into the abyss of deep sad blue
and losing my self in that fall
all with the chance that I will become
who I was meant to be from the start
of the ***** reaching the ****
Dare I spend time with you
laying myself out
on the expanse of your skin
feeling its coarse surface
learning its beautiful layers?
May I have the courage to take this small leap
to find you in the saddest and most joyful places.
If I dare to spend time with you
I will find myself in the strong grasp
of your immense reach.

Standing on the precipice
Admiring the view
Knowing fully well
What stepping forward blindly will do
He said, “What’s your favorite color?”
And I said, “You.”

You have one of the most beautiful soul I have ever come across.
Not a single blemish on your body could represent your eternal self.
With eyes that see through, I look upon the beauty of your eternal youth.
See what you may of my surface and wonder of my underneath,
I am but the spring of passions and countless quantum leaps.

Fifteen eighty three
Go to sleep March 11
Wake up March 22
The powers that be
Messing with
The calendars again
Were they vacation days
Or PTO?

To take that step
You bare your soul
Ready for rejection
Vulnerability taking hold
To take that step
You steel yourself
Ready for acceptance
Love thyself
To take that step
You make a transition
Acceptance, rejection
What’s the decision
But to not to take that step
To not be vulnerable
Keeps you safe
Leaves you comfortable
To not take the step
A life stagnates
Lack of fulfilment
Stalemate

Enveloping darkness,
Mysterious and daunting.
Secrets are covered,
Memories disappearing.
Confusion overwhelms,
Frustrating and painful.
Lies find life,
Shadows follow...
The ledge is near...
Fear leads me,
Can I even jump?
It feels as though the darkness completes me.
Spiraling deeper,
Emotions are out of control.
A whirlwind of pain,
A never ending hole.
Surrender, surrender!
Drop the capital “I”
Break the cycle,
Rip up the box!
The ledge is near...
always within sight,
ever shall it linger,
Until we learn to take up the fight!
The key is gratitude.
The lock is hope.
The doorway can open a new adventure,
But only if you are seeking what is true...
Leave the shadow,
Face the almighty sun!
Let the rays shine brightly,
Let the journey of love start the fun...
The ledge is here...
Now what shall be done?
