If I were to jump,
throw my soulless body from this
rooftop
Would you reach after me?
Would you risk your life to
bring me back to you?
What would you do?

If I were to scream,
kick my legs until they went numb,
would you calm me?
Hold me still?
Quiet me and tell me that it’s
going to be alright?
What would you do?

If I were to ask you
if you liked me
Would you say
yes?
What would you do?

If I were to tell you
I love you
What would you do?

You wouldn’t care.
That’s what you would do.
