says my heart,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
as I step <\/p>\n\n\n\n
onto<\/p>\n\n\n\n
the ledge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Don\u2019t be stupid,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
say my head.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Fuck, I expected<\/p>\n\n\n\n
you<\/p>\n\n\n\n
to be somewhat more<\/p>\n\n\n\n
clever.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For once.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Are you seventeen?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Do you even<\/p>\n\n\n\n
know this man?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Has this got<\/p>\n\n\n\n
something<\/p>\n\n\n\n
to do with your<\/p>\n\n\n\n
hormones?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I step back from the ledge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Fear, doubt and<\/p>\n\n\n\n
past hurt<\/p>\n\n\n\n
rushes in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I really am<\/p>\n\n\n\n
being<\/p>\n\n\n\n
stupid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And so<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I turn <\/p>\n\n\n\n
to leave.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Back to safety.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
To my<\/p>\n\n\n\n
quiet, lonely,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
perfectly<\/p>\n\n\n\n
safe<\/p>\n\n\n\n
life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Bye.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This was fun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And thank you<\/p>\n\n\n\n
for the<\/p>\n\n\n\n
fish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It\u2019s the pain<\/p>\n\n\n\n
in my chest<\/p>\n\n\n\n
that <\/p>\n\n\n\n
brings me<\/p>\n\n\n\n
back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
That and the<\/p>\n\n\n\n
bitter tears<\/p>\n\n\n\n
stuck in<\/p>\n\n\n\n
the back of my <\/p>\n\n\n\n
throat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I was born for <\/p>\n\n\n\n
this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Fuck safety,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
as I step<\/p>\n\n\n\n
over <\/p>\n\n\n\n
the ledge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
