I jumped at the opportunity without thinking
or looking at where I might end up landing.
In a ditch or hole and be stuck there for a long time.
But, I refused to be stuck in a place or feeling because I didn’t want to see that red flags weren’t there the whole time.
I jumped with my heart and landing with my mind as I opened my eyes to the truth.
The jump was not the end to my hopeless romantic ways but beginning to a new way of seeing things for what or who they are.
