Nothingness
I climb over to the other side.
Look down.
Only an inch left between me and the flight.
The bridge on which I stand is silent.
No one to stop me.
I lean forward, loose my balance, and glide...
Almost fly.
My heart is beating fast as I quickly realize I'm dying innocent,
Broken,
Hated.
Will God take me as his own after this?
I close my eyes only to open them upon the sight of the blue ocean an inch from my face
I see your face for the last time,
and plunge into the deep darkness
of the Pacific.
Surrounded by Nothingness.
