I unfold my keyboard. I rub my brow.
I am tired out. I am worn down. I am ready to fall from here.
I clumsily type; my fingers flailing wildly over the shadows of my thought.
I am sick of life.
I am sick of life. My typing slows, my thought blurs-the windows are closed, the night is a pall skull under the moonlights snow- my thought is slithered down my spine down my lips into my fingers shocked and slowed.
I am ready to die. I am ready to die my life is empty and alone. I am ready to move on my love is in the smaller things.
I cannot bear to watch the world unfold. I cannot bear to watch the things
I love wither and grow old.
All my life I have sought to find my proper place.
All my life I have loved.
I am ready to die. There is nothing left for me in this world. I find nothing but pain. In even the most beautiful creatures I find only loss.
I can dream the softest song, and I can write the strongest star over the mountains long, but i cannot place in my own smile the need for simple peace.
When I die I want to fall. I want to feel the air in my face. I want the ground speeding towards me. I want the impact hard and precise. It is what my death should be, because i have fallen from my love into a world that I cannot understand.

I thought this was intensely beautiful. Very
sad and descriptive the last 3 stanzas really
stood out to me. The title althought simple
really stood out as well.
