Faster I fall,
the ground nearing as I drop,
The wind whipping around me,
Fear pulsing through my veins,
I can not stop the adrenaline.
I can’t wait for it to be over,
Though a small part of me wishes,
To live again,
So I can re-live it all,
And deal with the pain and sadness.
I wish to laugh at stupid jokes,
Smile with my friends,
As we forget about our worries,
Our troubles,
And support each other.
Now, as I fall through the sky,
Contemplating my decision,
My past flashes before my eyes,
As the ground is too close,
Too close for me to turn around and escape it.
I’m not far from my given death,
As a lone tear rolls down my cheek,
I close my eyes,
And I recite my last breath,
Before my body and earth collide.
Am I mistaken,
Should I have done this?
I hope everyone knows,
I’m sorry for the pain,
I’m sure I’ve caused.

I really..
Like this alot, The way you show the pain and the emotions through images is awesome. I love the part.."As a lone tear rolls down my cheek, I close my eyse, And I recite my last breath, Before my body and earth collide." Great write. Thanks for showing how sometimes we decided things too quickly and then can't go back!

W O W!!!
That was GREAT!!! So much emotion. Sadness, regret, pain, remorse(sp). I LOVE it. It really makes you feel which is what I LOVE about good poetry. Your flow was good. You made me want to keep reading and see how it ends which is also important in any writing.
Anyway, AMAZING job and keep it up. I can't wait to read more. :]
