The Fool

Be authentic, don't you dare

I quarrel with myself

I have tried for many years

to be somebody else

The voices started in my dreams

A whisper deep within

This is not the life for you

But wait, I'll tell you when

Now…

Come and jump right off this ledge

A death wish? My heart freaks

I swear I feel the Universe

shake me when it speaks

Will I ever reach the ground

and find the reason why?

You told me I should do this

yet I'm fighting for my life?

I have taken many risks

So please pardon my doubt

I am learning how to trust

when there isn't a way out

What kind of fool would take this leap?

I wonder all the time

I guess I've got nothing to lose

except logical mind
