Looking over the city's lights
My sight becomes blurry
The traffic lights stream together
An electrifying line of light
I feel a rhythm beat inside me
I can sense it building
Outside the moon is bright
The ocean is in high tide
I open the window to the world below
The hum of traffic fills the room
A gust of wind comes through
Billowing curtains towards me
Pushing my hair away from my face
I am reclusive but don't feel alone
I wonder why we build a temporary future
I wonder why we shun away the idea of an eternal life
I need to escape this city before it consumes me
I'll keep a watchful eye on the night sky
Until I sink into the morning sun
I sense my soul is on a different path
But not of least resistance
I make my way to an imaginary ledge
With eyes closed and arms spread wide
I take a deep breath and dive
