THE BIG MOMENT
Deja vu. I read about this once. There's a movie just like this, but I can't remember the name. My favorite song is this exact same story. And here comes that big finish, all eyes on you. Wait for it...wait for it...
It's that big moment, the moment when anything can happen. That blink in time before you raise your hand to take the solo. That instant before you look into his eyes and say "yes". The split second before your toes leave the diving board. Your could jump now, let that flash of adrenaline clean your mind just before you hit the cold, calm water, or you could run quickly back to land, maybe nobody noticed.
That one wink of an eye where no matter what you do you could end up regretting it, but it might also be the best choice of your life. You have everything to lose and so much more to gain. The thinnest line seperates jumping at the chance with courage and optimism, and fight back the impulse with fear and logic. You're hanging on the edge and your fingers are slipping.
Will you take the chance?
Will I?
Or will I regret it forever?...
