• She could have let go, a hand grasping the rock of denial as if death wasn't eminent, as if there was no bottom she could hit, there was a tomorrow, despite the laws and the rules, despite even the inevitable, she chose to hold on.

    We sat together at the end of an open bridge, the end was crumbling and slipping away into the rushing water bellow, the archaic feel of this place always made us tremble with excitement, as the twitching spider that never ceases to wriggle. If her name was Chaos, then I was Caution, and as the story goes often she threw me to the wind, and in this case the wind was anything I refuse to do from fear, perhaps I was right to do so, perhaps I never lived the way she lived. Perhaps I still don't, perhaps I should have.

    I'm not too old but staring into her empty, sunken in eyes does something to you that makes you not want to make anyone else feel that way, but she only had me, me and that cliff face. She said she could hear it every day, as clearly as my mother shouting about her flower bed, as clearly as my father demanding silence in a house full of giggles, as clearly as...

    She was looking at me, I could have sworn it. I'm not the type of person to make things up, but her eyes, her eyes were staring at me! Her eyes were open, she's alive, talking to me! She needs me! I hear her, just as clearly as my mother shouts about her flower bed, as clearly as my father demanding silence in a house full of giggles! I hear her!

    Racing to the edge, the edge where she is, they tried to stop me but they never will! I'll save her, where I should have been before! I hear her, screaming, screaming! Calling to me as clearly as my mother shouting about her flower bed, as clearly as my father demanding silence in a house full of giggles! Nothing will stop me, I'm here, at the edge and I'm still going! I could have held on, could of grasped the same rock of denial as if death wasn't eminent, as if there was a tomorrow, despite the laws and rules, despite even the inevitable, I chose to let go.

    I chose to let go.
