jump, he said
down into that black oblivion
close your eyes and free yourself
do it, he urged
i'm with you,
and so i did
i took the plunge
and i took the fall
and i jumped.
i listened to the wind
as it laughed at me
as i continued to pummel
further and further.
as i lay there on the ground
unable to move
wondering why he wasn't beside me
i looked up and saw him laughing
as i cried.
the only sound i could hear
was
his
distant
chuckle*.
