I could stand at the edge of a waterfall for years, contemplating the jump: the moment my feet leave the ground, curling my body, gaining momentum, descending through the air, seeing what's coming, the moment I close my eyes, the second when my eyes are closed before I break the surface, when the last of my toes dips below the waterline and those weightless moments before I rejoin the world of the walking and talking.
If I could live under water you know I would.
