I inhaled a lungful of courage,

Then jumped,

I hear the glorious music of Mozart in my head,

The maelstrom of emotions barely gone,

The bar suspended in two parallel ropes,

I feel them cold to my hands,

The warm night is lashing at my face,

I maneuvered mid air,

I let go,

My eyes shut and my body ceases to move,

Fall,

I shall fall,

To the cold ground that could never match the coldness in me,

And no,

This ain't time for sweet salvation.
