Jump

If you jump in you'll sink or swim,
Loose or win, I'll jump then.
You'll know when your fears are faced,
Within your chest, your heart will race.
To climb to the top you'll reach up high,
Forget the rest to touch the sky. 
To stand on top, alone you'll stand,
Walking a road that once was ran. 
You follow a restricted, off-limit path,
Surely caught, you'll face the wrath.
Jump on in or run for your life,
One day you will face that scythe.
Turn away, you surely won't win,
Take a chance, you'll sink or swim.

Since you commented on one of mine I thought I'd take a look see. I wasn't disappointed Briauna. Just your one line about walking a path that has always been run as well worth the read. I just read some of the comments on this poem; so it seems you are new here. Same as well. I just started posting in February. I look forward to read some of your others.
