Down the Waterfall

It burns in me, your broken thoughts. Reminder of a wound, healed, yet, not forgotten. Ain't it too late? For I can hear the bamboos, that'll ferry me across, the meridian being felled. "Girl!" I say, "Weed off, your unhealthy doubts." Ah! The planned waterfall, is a free fall of thrills. There ain't a life jacket, But 'am set to take the plunge, Holding onto my ABCs*. You stick to the blueprint, please.
*ABC = Accelerator, Brake, Clutch (meaning controls/basics)
