Lighting

Lighting
There white limbs of lighting 
reaching out with hope across a river of 
tears dangeling over the edge of no fear.

The height was more than i 
could bear I was snatched in mid air.

I knew I could cope if I could get
untangled from the quivering limbs of 
lighting,AS I was looking thru 
the mirror of fears thru my tears
.
A decision to leap for faith or 
jump for life,Shivering in my boots 
I jumped,Now I reap my rewards.
