To Take a Leap

Sometimes I don’t want to be brave 
I want to let go and scream;
Sometimes I don’t feel all of my strength
I want to stop running;
Sometimes I cannot fully breathe
I want to break down all the walls.

I feel overcome by a desire
— to become fluid
— to see the boundaries dissipate
I want to become free — 
enough to take a leap
And to not want to know where I am going.
