Splash

The urge to stand on a bridge,

Arms opened wide and free,

Welcomed by the winds mapping my skin,

Instead;

I dream of the water beneath my feet,

Begging incessantly to meet with my chest,

Assuring a reward of a new life promised with the wetness of my hair and lightness of my body,

A reboot from every crippling defeat troubling me,

Indeed;

It’s a beautiful wish to flow and become one with the tides,

To be released from life in hopes of finding a new spark,

A crave for emptiness within consciousness as one sinks into its depths,

Just for that splash.
