Leaping Into Death

Looking from the mountain top 
i see the depth beneath gaping at me
strong wind gushing against my torso
I feel the force through my veins
Throwing me back to the land
But i stand rooted 
As if I've been shackled to the edge
Same as i dwindle betwixt my dream 
And the morose reality i live in
I want to break free, i want to fly
I want to scream, i want to cry
I have no fear left of leaping into death
All i need is to Breathe free; in those last moments
As i breathed for the first time in the womb
Last but not the least......
Can someone just put a white flag on my tomb.......
