She is on the verge of insanity. 
She skirts the edges of her mind, 
Her feet just peeking over a skyscraper,
The solid earth below
She is so high. 
Her head could almost graze the clouds.

Behind her,
He reaches out. 
She looks to him,
Expecting to be saved.
His full mouth forms a decisive shape,
Takes a breath, 
And blows her off the edge.

She falls.
Stomach in her throat.
Heart in her ears.
Life in her eyes.

By his eyes she falls,
By his lips she dies.
And dies.
