Leap to Escape

malayang.ibon

Standing on the rooftop

looking at the surroundings for the last time.

Saving everything on her mind

and keep it, before she’ll close her eyes.

 

This is it!

Today is the last chapter of her life.

She is now closing the last page of her book

to end her sorrow and her afflictions.

 

This will become a memory,

a very painful one for the one’s that loved her.

And now she leaps and  falling freely

to escape from this world, eternally.

    leap to where?
    'Anywhere, but here!'
    are the words, of a short-sighted temporary mindset...
    if this is a dedication to a fallen victim
    then I offer you my sympathy, while
    adding, you could have worded this in past tense
    (eg. 'she leapt')
    but if this is a poetic expression of someone's feelings
    of hopelessness and depression, then your tone is alarming
    (in my humble opinion)..
    pain is a certainty in life, and no one
    can judge wat your pain limits 'should be'! however
    your writing glamourizes: imagery of 'ending life'
    as if its a one way escape?
    How selfish, that artistic perspective is
    so many have to pay, for someone's 'attempt' at an ending
    and what guarantee, does anyone have?
    Tell me, honestly
    with the will and fight it takes, to give-in
    could you not, try and call-out for help
    a few more times
    admittedly this internet, has been warped
    into a cesspool of everything inhumane
    but aren't there still, so many tether's to hope it provides?
