Just Jump In
They looked at the water
Not moving
Just quiet breaths
Each minute goes by
Every word unsaid
They're on the edge
So close to jumping
Never sinking all the way in
Instead they look at the water
Forward towards what could be
Across the river
A life they could lead
A future
A dream
Or reality
They don't know
Because they are so close to jumping
But haven't quite sunk in
So close to living but not yet quite in
