Falling down from your hands,
I fear the Depth below.
Its Dark and quiet there
and I Dread my fate.
Desperately, holding on,
digging my nails into your skin
and you don’t even let out a Scream.
I still see the same Love in your eyes
and no sign of the Pain I’m causing.
Not wanting to let me Go,
you hold me Tight,
with all your Might
and yet I’m Slipping away.
So slowly that one may
miss it with the blink of an eye,
but I Can’t,
as my palm touches yours.
Empty palm with Nothing to give
but so much to Take
‘coz life down there is Unknown.
Just the thought sends a Shiver down my spine
and I look Pleadingly into your eyes,
where I see the light of my last Hope
but I find the light Dimming,
as my hand Slips from Yours.
The fingers touch for the Last time
and my eyes filled with Fear,
look into your Alarmed ones,
and I Leave,
with your face Etched in my mind,
Forever.
