She thought the world was going to end.
So she climbed the tallest building she could find, ran up the nearest set of stairs.
She didn't even acknowledge the elevator a few steps away.
When she got to the roof access door, she opened it without hesitation.
She blocked out the sound of the fire alarm loudly trailing behind her determined strides.
She ran towards the edge of the building,
All while tears streamed down her face.

All while the traffic that was once below her feet,
goes about their day
Because the world kept spinning
and it didn't end for anyone.
Except for her.
But her world had already collapsed
It only ended when she jumped
