Diving Board
I'm not ready.
I look down,
Over the edge of the board
Into the deep waters
Beneath me:
And I'm not ready.
I cannot jump,
Cannot take the leap.
Friends below are yelling,
Pushing me forward
Towards the edge.
I'm not ready.
Someone from behind pushes,
I have no choice,
I close my eyes and fall.
And I'm not ready.
