Don’t Survey The Fall

Don’t bother sitting on the fence or teetering on the ledge.
Don’t bother thinking. Just step off the edge.
Come.
Join your brothers.
Go.
Be with your sisters.
They are the fallen: your true kin, your brethren.
You’re scared of pain. You hate feeling loss.
You’re already there, friend, so go on; toss.
Everything sacred, all you hold dear.
Step off that ledge.
You know, it’s just fear.
Isn’t it always?
Just fear?
Why are you waiting? The choice has been clear.
Isn’t that why you’re standing up here?
What you want is to feel.
What you want is to heal.
You want so much more than what has led you up here.
This is not the end
I’m telling you this is the start,
Of a life without pain. It’s for you to claim.
Don’t listen to fear.
I promise you, the end is near.
