Angry screams bounce effortlessly                       around my head; they're too loud to dismiss.          shoving me forward attempting to push me                                                  off.                                      I attempt to hold my ground,                                        but the yelling mutates into wails                                                                                       shrieks                                                                               in distress                                                                          pain                                                                    anger                                                             suffering                                      guiding me backward                              towards the edge.          Did I really cause this much                                                                                                          pain?                                                                                       It would be so easy to jump                                                                                accidentally 'slip'                                                                        give up                                                                   let go                                                             fall and never look back.

Staring down a cliff.
Angry screams bounce effortlessly                       around my head; they're too loud to dismiss.          shoving me forward attempting to push me                                                  off.                                      I attempt to hold my ground,                                        but the yelling mutates into wails                                                                                       shrieks                                                                               in distress                                                                          pain                                                                    anger                                                             suffering                                      guiding me backward                              towards the edge.          Did I really cause this much                                                                                                          pain?                                                                                       It would be so easy to jump                                                                                accidentally 'slip'                                                                        give up                                                                   let go                                                             fall and never look back.
