Questions of the Leap
Shall I stand on the precipice for eternity or take the leap to the other horizon?
Will I bound to something new or remain in the comfort of my predictable side?
But is it truly comfort or a truth of pain covered by the allusion of security?
Nothing pursues me on my side, but is this security or loneliness?
Does my destiny lie on the other side or in my place here?
What if another chasm awaits my travel past the other rim?
Shall I walk in partience along the edge for a crossing or leap across in faith?
Is it unwise to take the risk or is there wisdom in the taking?

(Instead of deleting and reposting a comment with the correct spelling I thought it would be funny to leave the initial misspelling up there as in gchat.)

Very beautiful and thoughtful! All are good questions...
I like vellavoce as your name!
BTW, check out my post "The Leap of Faith", since you have mentioned leap and faith here. - Just for fun :-).

Lovely. And quite provocative/evocative questions.
Your mother's nickname for you is apt. Beautiful voice. (Must have been inherited. :-)

I've walked the rim looking for a bridge, but found only remnants of other people's journeys. When I stopped and surveyed the chasm I discovered the tools to build my own bridge. The tools are there for those who seek them. The leap is only as far as one foot in front of the other.
Arg, mind blanking. I must reread when I can think strait. Ugh.
Oh yes, I be one of those people AJ sent your way...
