I’m not ready to leave unless they are. You don’t understand my place; Standing stiff. Eyes stricken with fear. Hands clutching the top of my thighs. Looking into the abyss of my unknown future. I can’t tell where Reality is, and I’m not happy playing these hide and seek games with her. I need solace; comfort like the smell of my blankets; like the familiar eyes of my kin; like the sound of beautiful laughter. Rock begins to titter off the weakened cliff I’ve come so use to standing on. My back bends forward from the lack of stability and I see the clear and foreign face of Reality. Her friendly hands open wide, ready to take me off of this crumbling rocky divide. “You deserve so much better then this.” My tears say it all and my legs depart from my body, ready to jump without another debated thought. I look back and see my Past; waiting. Bastardly appearance Bruised body ****** nose Weary smile Mouth filled with tortured tale after tortured tale Smiling; I jump.
