My Last Flight

I walk to the edge,

The winds blowing hard,

No thoughts in my head

After coming this far.

I am ten stories high,

And no longer scared

At first this was fake

But its no longer a dare

So I put one foot over

And then I look down

Then the other one slips

And I'm falling to the ground

No looking back, this is it

No more waiting, no more regret

It feels like I'm flying

Way high in the air

But I'm actually falling

Without a single care

The ground's coming fast

Getting closer and closer

A few seconds to impact

My life is soon over.
