kimi writes:: " The top of the tallest tree
On the top of the tallest hill
then jump.
That’s what I told him.
Yet, what difference did it make?
You say these things and they assume
you won’t do it
you don’t mean it
never go through with it.
What do they know?

I told him for the attention
I cared for him then.
I wanted him to know something
of what was happening to me.
But later I realised
it was something I really did
want to do,
in a strange way, which I never understood.
That tree, so welcoming.
I wanted to fly
even for only a moment.
I have dreamed. I still dream.
Dreams that have never,
can never
come true.
Just sitting alone
hearing the dismal, beautiful
Music
float around my ears.
Which is when I thought of that tree.
I’ve been up there before:
the feeling you could fall
any moment in time;
excitement, fear, awe.
I wanted to be up there again
To inadvertently lose my grip.
To soar down to that canopy
that waits for me.
Soft as moss
green as his eyes.

Just once. Nothing more. "
