[bodytext] => Birds scattering At the sound of her scream On top of the world Yet invisible it seems On her lunchbreak Right at noon No one suspected She'd be absent for the afternoon High school had been hard So far almost three years Tried to fit in a little too much Too many drugs, too many beers A little too far A little too soon Now she'd permanently be Enclosed by her personal tomb From the sixth floor roof Looking straight down Wondering what it'd look like If her blood splattered on teh ground She could do it quick with a gun Or go slow with some meth Instead she chose a gorey Inevitably disturbing death The pressure was too much Her ignorance took teh best No longer could she endure The painful and brutal life tests Never played sports Never made the team Her being an athlete Was a silly little dream Never made the cheerleading squad Couldn't carry a tune Couldn't act to save her life She just stayed locked up in her room With a glance at the sun About to be attacked By rainclouds and haze There was no turning back She didn't even say a prayer And had no more thoughts to think Didn't even leave a letter Written in pen of ink Falling through the sky For a short time that lasted forever Wind blowing her hair back But she wasn't alone, no never In the midst of her fall Midway to her death The whole world paused Out came the angel of life, and angel of death "You should die, just keep falling!" "No, you have a life! You have purpose!" "You have no purpose, you're worthless!" "Remember when you were happy, you're not worthless!" The angels fought back and forth But the girl didn't listen She realized what she was doing And all she would be missing She looked at hte angels One in all black, the other in white "Please, I wanna live! I have to see my mother tonight!" The angel of death Turned and flew away As the angel of life Granted her another day When the girl re-opened her eyes She found herself in a hall In the city hospital And she heard her mother call She ripped the door open Ran to her mother's side "Mama, don't leave me! Because of you I didn't die!" "I almost jumped, I was almost to the ground, But my mind came back to me, My sanity was found!" "I knew how I wanted, Your last hours to be, But I don't wanna lose you, Can't you see!" The girl's mother Slowly stroked her daughter's hair "I'll always be with you, Anytime, and everywhere." "I'll be in your mind Memories of me, And I'll be in your heart, Forever and eternity," "I love you my sweetie, My pride and peace, But now I must go, Now I must leave." Her mother's eyes Softly closed shut, "Mother, don't leave me! Not in this rut!" The girl's eyes widened And she shook with fear Her mother growing colder But on her cheek lay a warm tear The girl fell Onto her knees "Mama, come back! Oh, please, PLEASE!" A light appeared In the hospital room The angel of life's light Filled the room "Let's go my child, You already leaped Come wiht me now Up off your feet!" The girl opened her eyes She was midway to the ground She looked over to the angel But the angel was no where to be found Ash she fell To her death She heard a soft voice From an angelic breath "No second chances, In life you will get, You took teh leap, Did you forget?" "No one's to blame Besides yourself I let you see your mother I did my job to help." On the pavement Lay a corpse A girl gone too soon Her time cut short If you choose to die A miracle won't happen You can't be saved midway Death you are trapped in Think before you do it, Think before you leap, Before your body ends up, Six feet deep.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
