The Edge

by Rebecca   Mar 19, 2007


This time, she tries not to look down,
But again, she fails with a big frown.
The wind is so violently strong and irate,
It has wanted to bring her to her fate.

It is such a long distance to fall,
She wants to jump, but all she can do is bawl.
Leaving everyone she loves behind,
They can pick up her pieces of what is left to find.

Always being pushed too far,
She looks up to gaze at the stars.
She creeps a little closer to the edge,
But there is nothing much to this ledge.

As it gives away from underneath her,
She feels the cold rush of the wind stir.
Her heart pounds faster in her chest,
She wishes now she had a parachute vest.

With nothing more she can do,
She lets the gravity take her too.
This is for real, not for fake,
She wishes that below, there was a giant lake.

Getting closer to the ground,
She takes a bit to look all around.
She closes her eyes once she hits the floor,
Drenched in sweat, waking up from this nightmare, is such a bore
