Jump the Gun




The term 'Jump the Gun' is a phrase which means (generically for myself) admitting your true feelings and not giving a care one second later about the consequences. The term in full actually is, 'Jump the Gun and fuck off.' The Words that can describe this action are: Reckless, Irrational, Immature, untractable, Stupid, Brave, Courageous, Indifferent.

The phrase is usually applied to the person you like but you have been beating around the love bush for far too long and you are just about to raise the white flag and bite your thumb off but you decide instead to just take that leap of faith. Specifically for myself, it applies to a girl whom I have only met once but there is this little chance that she might just about be the most interesting person I have ever talked to. I have never felt like this in a very long time, or at least not as deeply confounded in this array of undullating emotions. It is like a spark in my gut that I cannot fully articulate.

The uncertainity keeps me still from the world. I am unable to concieve the length of this eon. Will my heart and head survive to endure this estatic symphony. Should I just Jump the Gun and run away, utter silence, till you call out for me again? Till you let him go and allow yourself to be enfolded in my arms.
