A white house Modern with obnoxious windows catching the view of the Hollywood sign A house in the hills. Standing on the roof is a girl Me? I can't tell Not from this far away She is balanced right on the edge of the flat roof. She looks over the edge and sees. If she fell, she would feel the exhilaration Only to crash at the bottom. All things come to an end.
A man walks toward her. He's not going to hurt her. He has to much care in his step To much love emanating from his body. She begins to sway Careful! But she steadies herself. He helps her steady herself. A warm breeze blows it's way through their silhouettes against a California sunset Gentle Not enough. They stare at each other They talk Then scream She screams more She is begging him to push her over
Why?! Please! Do you really want it? Yes. I do.
He pleads with her more Just a little bit more... He musters up the strength to push her She prepares herself for the rush. One full gust of wind One push And she's off. Her feet leave the ground And she is falling. Floating. Is there really a difference? He stands in relieved shock. Awe They maintain eye contact the whole way. The connection makes it bearable And equally unbearable. She doesn't see her life as she falls She sees him. On her lips All over her skin In her hair Around her neck Over her shoulder In her mind. Her last thought before she opens her eyes... He stands over her Again?
