I have closed my eyes as I sit on the edge of this hill,
the sensation of panic as my feet submerge in the precipice,
a tingling feeling as the wind's hands pull me down,
this blindness in the dark as I lift my hands to touch you,
I trace every edge and corner as I memorize your face,
the warmth of your breath burns my palms,
the tears on your soft skin is melting into mine,
I am crying now because my chest is full,
I am getting heavier because you are fading away,
there is no breath, no tears, no warmth, just smoke,
I am blind but I can feel you sinking in the valley,
the wind is taking you away and I am reaching out,
I am not afraid of the hill or the darkness anymore,
I am leaning over as I spread my arms to dive into the sea below,
I will be smoke and air and everything alive with you,
And as I leap I don't remember your face anymore.
