Count Down
I feel like I could fall
My arms spread wide like the wings of a bird as it soars
My legs a few inches apart.
One.
I feel tense.
My back is to the scenery,
My eyes are closed.
Two.
I should probably step away.
I cannot…I have come this far.
I am here alone…
Three.
I feel the eyes of nature upon my lightly clothes body.
I know her beauty, feel it.
I want to be with her…
Four.
I will do this for my own sake.
I must do this!
I fear myself now, but I must!
Five!
It’s time!
In…
Out…
In…
Out…
In…
I jump and let the last breath out.
