Infinite Suspense
Written on a very special bridge.
The fall is less frightening
Than the ledge upon which I stand
To fly like a bird is freedom
To stand like a monolith to pain is imprisonment
The water looks so calm below
Whereas above there is nothing but chaos
The cars drive by
In a whirlwind of confusion
The trees blossom in greens, and oranges, and yellows too
The buildings fume their infernal smoke into the air
The sweet Spring air assaults my nose
I take it in, for it’s to be my last breath
The fall is peaceful, an ending
Whereas the ledge is infinite suspense.
