It was the glint that caught my eye.
Split second moment.
A flash that pierced
through all flurry and rage.
*I knew where it was.
I knew what it was.*
Like a light switch flicked on,
a thought came on instantly.
It called to me as silent,
swift and sharp as it was...
It called for a plunge.
*A plunge to release the red.
A plunge to relieve the pressure.
A plunge to end it.*
I wanted so much to
but I did not take that leap.
Because where that
would’ve taken me,
there can never be a way back.
