[bodytext] => I'm standing at the top of a building All I can see is the sky The wind is blowing through my hair I don't look down That would be pointless I know what I would see down there Billions of faces looking up at me Begging me to reconsider A decision I'd already made I walk to the edge of the building I'm breathing slowly and deliberately I can no longer be afraid I spread my arms wide, I close my eyes And by a sudden circumstance I glance down and I see you You are looking at me with your beautiful brown eyes They hold me and don't let me go You start your way toward the building and the crowd lets you through For a second I reconsider my decision Because I know you'll be up here soon You'll try to save me like you did before This time is different though You said it yourself You don't love me anymore I hold my breath for a second I try not to think of you A single tear rolls down my cheek I close my eyes I have to do this I can't be held back I feel so weak I think back to all the good times we had And the last time I fought with you. I remember what you had said I put my feet on the very edge I close my eyes and start to fall You take my wrist instead You pull me up and away from my death And into your arms once again Your face and mine are inches part I bury my face into your chest And cry helplessly as you hold me You were the one who broke my heart Why have you come back? Why couldn't you let me go? You whisper in my ear that you love me still I turn my face up towards yours You kiss me lightly on the lips I feel my heart starting to heal Rain starts to come down over both of us and you hold me You say that you'll never leave me again and take my hand in yours I'll stay in that moment forever and forever I'll be with you In the distance, thunder roars [comments] => 1 [counter] => 167 [topic] => 31 [informant] => Dizz [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => StoryPoetry )
