Contemplative Nightmare
I sidestep the smoke,
and I walk to the edge.
I take in the sight,
from this small little ledge.
My thoughts are now racing,
and reaching for reason,
but with too many to count,
my heartbeats increasing.
This last years been so hard,
and I just can't go on.
I've lost faith in all things,
now that your gone.
Tell my mom that I love her,
and tell dad not to cry.
Tell Jen to be strong,
and tell Lili goodbye.
Tell Greg that I’m proud,
of all that he's done,
and tell him I’m sorry,
but this had to be done.
I take one last breath,
as these tears stream my cheeks,
and I curse at myself,
for being selfish and weak.
I take my last step,
and as I fall to my death.
I wake up in bed,
catching my breath.
