Peering over this ledge,
I cannot see the bottom.
I imagine that it is nothing but a dark void.
Only the nightmares inhabiting it.
Such a twisted place.
It doesn't help my fear of heights.
Perhaps, it isn't just that fear,
But also the fear of it's darkness.
I feel quite uneasy.
I turn around to walk away from this place,
But I lose my footing.
I'm hanging now from this edge,
Praying that I don't fall.
5 fingers are all that are holding me up.
4 fingers
3, now 2.
I'm falling now.
I've been falling for quite some time now.
I'm still falling, even now.
I wonder when I'll finally hit the bottom...
