As I look down

the edge of the cliff

I consider my choice

 

Am I really ready to go?

To leave all of this behind

I am unsure now

 

My family will mourn

My friends will feel scorn

It will be awful for them

 

I cannot do this

not to them

I stepped back

 

But once I did my brain flouded

with thoughts

of how I see myself

with memories

of thing people have said

 

I can't do it I can't stay

I'm not sure when I lost my faith

but I know

that I've fallen from grace

 

I look down the ledge one last time

I say goodbye to the world

and myself

 

Tears stream down my face

and rain starts to fall

I take a deep breath in

and jump

 

But I do fall

but then I soar

free
