A step onto the balcony
Away from the hideous reflection on the mirror
Second step
Away from the jeers and taunts of peers
Third step
Away from the sighs and glares of family and friends
Fourth step
Away from the scattered papers of failures
Fifth step
Away from the torture and emptiness of a false love
Left foot, right foot, over and over
Away from apathy, enmity, suffering, despair
One, two, three, four, again and again
From solitude, disillusion, anger, desire
A step onto the rail
Away from the collections of broken promises, false hopes, and shattered dreams
A step into the air
Weightless, lifeless
Freedom, darkness
Rest
(Please note I am not suicidal in real life. I merely am fascinated by exploring the darker aspects of emotions and the poetic power they have)
