Emotions Beacuse Im a Woman

i'm standing on the edge of a skyscraper, confident to jump. 
to give up.
and i do. 
and the three seconds i thought i'd spend falling without thought
become a whirlwind of the things i could have done but never got the chance to, 
the things i should have done but never wanted to; 
the people i hurt, 
the people my death will hurt; 
every negative energy within me swells, 
binding and blinding me as i fall to despair. 
my life flashes before my eyes- 
and i drown in regret before i even hit the cement. 

this thought makes faucets of my eyes.
