Well, Love is a seemingly bottomless trench that we all must jump into eventually. The problem is whether it really IS bottomless or is it just so deep that you can't see the bottom from the top, meaning it will take you forever to get back to where you were so you can try again.
Leap of love
I stand at the top
Of this mile high peak
Afraid to look down
Afraid to leap
I look down at the pit
And start to think
"What if I'm wrong"
As I step towards the brink
It looks like it's endless,
But there might be a floor
another crash of which
my heart can take no more
"I've jumped these before,
But they always stop.
Then it takes forever
To climb back to the top"
I look at the others
And see jagged rocks
That would skewer me through
If I were to drop
I look back at this one
And see only smooth walls
Nothing to stab me
If I were to fall
But others have seemed
That they were perfect, but yet
The further down I fell
The more serious the threat
I take a deep breath
And look up above
And take a running start
For this last leap of love
