The Fall

Last night I found an ancient cliff,
So I climbed up to the top,
As I stood on the edge looking down below,
I wondered whether to drop.

To slide off the edge of everything,
Disappear, let allĀ  worries go,
Dive off in one graceful, swift descent,
Close my eyes, as I plummet below.

Silently slipping and fading away,
Like a lone mockingbird taking flight,
And as I thought of all of this,
I stepped forward, and fell into the night.
