A Plain Jump

To say it plainly, I went for it.

By Michael OwczarekPublished about 23 hours ago 1 min read

The box was there.

And yes, I did care.

It was staring at me

in the corner this whole time

while I was jumping on

a single box

that was not as high.

Well, well,

3 sets were done.

Accomplished and finished.

I had won,

but only with what I started.

As I knew the 24" plus 6"

would be my highest.

So, how could I not

at least give it a try?

A thought of 'only the window

holding me back'

came across my mind.

So with that said,

I knew what was ahead -

my feet left the ground.

I allowed myself

to be heart-led.
