#bojack - Hello Poetry

The weak breeze whispers nothing the water screams sublime. His feet shift, teeter-totter deep breaths, stand back, it’s time. Toes untouch the overpass soon he’s water-bound. Eyes locked shut but peek to see the view from halfway down. A little wind, a summer sun a river rich and regal. A flood of fond endorphins brings a calm that knows no equal. You’re flying now, you see things much more clear than from the ground. It's all okay, or it would be were you not now halfway down. Thrash to break from gravity what now could slow the drop? All I’d give for toes to touch the safety back at top. But this is it, the deed is done silence drowns the sound. Before I leaped I should've seen the view from halfway down. I really should’ve thought about the view from halfway down. I wish I could've known about the view from halfway down—

You know what I thought When I was falling Off that building and I went into panic mode? The last thing that My stupid brain Could come up with? "Won't they be sorry"

Am I a good person? Underneath all these layers (The layers of an onion) [Like Shrek, full of layers] -pretty sure the onion quote is dead- I don't want you to remove my layers to find a person that isn't the same on the outside. Onions are perfect because with each layer they look exactly alike. If you took me apart we'd find the person I think you want me to be. (If you took me apart you'd be a murderer) [Don't try to find out, organs don't talk.] -The mess would be such a hassle- I wish someone could tell me. It's all in the way, these layers they're all that we have.
