Both feet on the ledge. Looking down onto the ground below, Knowing that one more step could end a life. I know I will be free from danger, You will catch me. I will be saved. But I took that step and I fell. I fell, knowing you would be there, Knowing I would be unscathed. I thought I would be free from danger, You would be there to catch me. But I wasn’t saved.

The Fall
Both feet on the ledge. Looking down onto the ground below, Knowing that one more step could end a life. I know I will be free from danger, You will catch me. I will be saved. But I took that step and I fell. I fell, knowing you would be there, Knowing I would be unscathed. I thought I would be free from danger, You would be there to catch me. But I wasn’t saved.
