Ninja Skills

I’m on the edge

I’m afraid to fall.

I don’t show fear

For fear is only weakness.

I can’t afford weakness.

I move with stealth,

It’s a skill that not many possess.

I am a shinobi.

As I move along the edge of the cliff,

I realize my triumphs in life,

I also realize my failures.

I dwell on those failures to make me better,

But I know that dwelling with only slow me down.

My mission is almost complete.

I step around the giant puddle outside my door.

I’m determined not to get my shoes wet.

I’m almost done.

I jump the last part and head to the bathroom.

Mission accomplished.
