A Leap


I took a leap, a leap without faith Off the cliff and into space With darkness below me Leaving the daylight behind I left the sun's comfort I fell and fell and fell and fell Until I reached the bottom of the well There the darkness swallowed me whole Took me into its arms And will never let go The demons are curious They pinch and they bite And they wonder out loud, Who is this child That leaped from the cloud?
