I feel like that's just a fancy way of saying
“jumping is the biggest decision a person can make”
because choosing to die is the most powerful thing you can do
to be free from every wound and trauma
to be free from another day or another trial
to be free from every single ugly part of living
so if my legs took me to my balcony
and I stumbled
as if I were going to jump
do you think I might feel a little of that freedom?

it's been way too long, poets. i'm glad to be back. this was an interesting piece to do, sparked by a phenomenon my friend explained to me the other day - call of the void. i recommend looking into it if you understand the feeling i'm writing about or are just curious.
