It started with a try.
Though I don't know why,
Being content ,I looked up at the sky,
Feeling the coldness of water against my skin as i sigh.

It doesn't repulse me as it , did a few weeks ago,
The flow of the water slowed.
Felt the fish in the water below ,
Touching my feet and making my breath shallow.

I got better at handling my phobia now,
It happened cause I ; allowed.
Cause I got a dream to fly over the world,
Which, with the phobia I couldn't have conquered.

But now I know It wouldn't take long,
Cause the present me, is strong .
With dreams to ascend, my fears I transcend,
Here comes my journey , where the new horizon blends.

(inspired by a character in book)
