Description
I looked out to the sea from the bridge. I heard a car pass behind me. I took a deep breath focusing on all my life problems. I held it as long as I could. No matter as much as I tried the breath got away. Sighing I remembered my fear of heights, and could not help but to chuckle. I jumped. I watched the water come closer and closer. I realized to late that the fall would not kill me. When I hit the water I swam as far down as I could. The river was pretty deep so I could not swim the whole way down. As my lungs started to hurt I saw red. The water was cold and I began to shiver. t was not much longer that I passed out. I woke up to someone's mouth on me. My ribs felt like they may be cracked. My body gasped for air refusing to let me die. I could hear the cheers from the crowd that must have gathered to watch the "rescue". my "rescuer" made a canny remark about watching my step when on a bridge, but I was not listening. I could not even die right. I was such a screw up. I stared out to sea. I noticed I was still shivering and someone had put a towel around me. After a while I got up and thanked my "rescuer" and left. I got in my car and drove . It was a about a hour when I got to the next bridge. This one was a lot higher. I purposely blocked traffic with my car. I went to the side of the bridge and stared out to the river. As the horns began clouding my thoughts I jumped. I felt the wind all around me. Ruffling my clothes. Rubbing my face. Rubbing my face. Racking my head. Once again the fall did not kill me. I swam as deep as I could. My lungs began to cramp. I began to gasp for air. As my lungs filled with water my vision blurred; and dimmed. "I wonder if I'll be rescued again" I think as I passed out.
