I Closed My Eyes


 So I closed my eyes
Before taking the leap,
For my faith is frail,
And fear starts to creep.

My hands shake,
My mind is a rampage, 
My heart is the only
Beating with courage.

So I closed my eyes
As I take the leap,
For in my own darkness
I can take my lead.

Be the master of my fate,
Be the calming winds to assuage,
My apoplectic ocean.
The beauty of the braves.
