Another Fall Poem by Timothy Ko.

In hopes that everything will be alright, I sat here and cried
More I did, more pain to me as emotions started to collide
Drops of tears rolled out my eyes to call for help with a shine
For life I hung on a thread, but soon enough I crossed the line
The weight of the world caused every dropp to lose its shape
Ceaseless stream attempted to keep but travelled at an extravagant rate
My thoughts were straight; I wanted to scream, let it out, and end it
As my tears did, I wanted to bid this world good bye and thought it fit
Imagine how simple everything would become in an instant
A few seconds strain then peace arrives with not a pant
Then thoughts of people I leave start roaming my mind
A conclusion came quickly to me; I felt as if this was a sign
The pain will only hurt for a short period in time
Eventually fade not a feeling left even in the spine
I look up and I look down wondering where I would end
If another start, a new beginning, then where would i be sent?
Life and I had gone apart and now I was escaping out
No one to help, no one to stop even when I wanted to shout
So I quietly said good bye to all and my heart chose to fall
I could not come up with any more excuses, no reason to stall
So I closed my eyes, faced up high, and prepared a jump
Leaving behind all the pain inside, everything I considered a slump
One more step would end all I've wept and release me
Into the darkness never to return this could make me free
With all my determination I still shook, fear of the unknown
Still I could not go back to what this world had shown
Letting go of all that held, I took my last step and let nature work
Gravity pulled as my mind flew, going through my life's dirt
Slow was the fall then contact ended it all setting me loose
From then is for the living to guess as to death I was introduced
