Description
It was just likethe movies.
I took a step,
and empty space
met me.
Before I could rethink,
chicken out,
back up- BACK UP!
the rest of my
body followed my leg.
From that moment,
terror gripped me.
A terror so intense
I couldn't breathe
couldn't think.
Saw the hard concrete
rushing closher,
soft flesh tingling
in anticipation.
Closed my eyes
spread out arms and legs,
and felt the ground,
sensed it beneath me
freefalling for so long
I forgot about suicide.
Forgot the terror
that encased my heart,
the terrible longing
for freedom,
the hate in the pit
of my belly,
the regret.
Only this sensation,
flying through the air
a million miles a second,
remained.
I opened my eyes,
spell broken.
Regret and fear came
swarming back.
Moments away from impact,
I felt a rush of
love for the only
man I'd ever loved,
who'd ever loved me.
I closed my eyes and
tensed for the impact,
a singled tear forming
as I hit the ground.
Regret, fear, or simply the wind?
No-one will know.
