The nerves touch the blood,
Only to let us know
That our feet are near the edge of the sun.
And as we look down,
We see waters ready to catch our tears,
And willing to swallow our shadows.
So when you look down again,
Do you choke on your wind?
Does your body love you?
Do you love it?
Does it feel like the earth has crashed into meteors?
Does your hands feel mindless?
Does your memories not bother you?
Are they just an open wing that you won't let fly?
...
Whatever it is,
I know the anxiety is talking,
But the eyes will be the final word.
If you so wish to leave,
Then close your eyes and listen to your body.
But...
If you wish to cherish cupid one more time,
And give yourself a chance,
Then would you?
