I Do Love Contradictions

You've packed up your gear
Put on your helmet and your goggles
You step closer to the ledge
Your heart begins to race 
Thinking about the crazy stunt you're about to pull
You double check your parachute
Maybe a hundred times
You tell yourself to keep breathing
Keep breathing
A specific type of fear running through your veins
Along with excitement and adrenaline
You look around for encouragement
A push
You step back only to make a last decision of whether to jump or not
Forcefully, you push yourself to start running so you have no other option 
You're flying through the air thinking I did it, I did it
You land saying, let's do it again!
You want the fear, the nerves, the endorphins, the adrenaline
Over and over again.
An addiction
Wanting fear and excitement at the same time
It's crazy
Just crazy
