The Ledge of Life

Just one more breath.
      Your still on the ledge.
Don’t be scared.
      Your not too close to the edge.
It’s only one step away.
      You have pushed every day.
It’s only another way to pay.

Reach out.
      Away from the ledge.
          Remember, it’s just one grip.
                    Don’t let the sweat drip.
                          Right hand.
                                Then, left.
                      Take it one at a time.

Good Job.
Now, take that one step.

Try to grab one thing!
      Reach out!
            Save your one life!



Reach higher.
      Further!


Too late.

Now, brace yourself.
      For that one last feeling.
You fell from the ledge,
      From being pushed one last time.
