I opened my eyes
Everything was blur. Where am I?
Am I in heaven? Or is this hell?
Its dark in here, I can feel wind passing
But it was far from where I am.
Minutes have passed, slowly I can see things clearly
I was shocked; I was in the same tower I was in before I jump.
Why am I here again?
I looked around, nothing has change,
I hurriedly went to the first window and looked down
They are still the same person, who we’re burdened and sad.
Why?
I sat down, and looked at the people
Am I their guardian angel?
It seems like it’s my duty to take care of them.
Footsteps are getting louder and louder
I looked up and saw a man
He smiled and sat beside me
He didn’t speak, but his presence made me feel something
With him my worries vanished
My heart was filled with joy
Who are you?
I stared at him, and he looked at me
He’s still smiling
He looked up and smiled at me again
No words are coming out from his mouth
But he’s telling me to climb again
“There’s no way out, I’ll stay here”
He didn’t speak
He stood and took my hand, and started taking steps
His face is saying he’ll be with me
So I took my steps with him.
It’s fun to be with him,
Though I’m trapped, he became my source of happiness.
It’s a long journey, but I’m not tired
Because he’s here.
I’m running, we’re running
A race to the top of the building.
It was fun, but my legs are giving up so I stopped.
I catch my breath, because I can’t keep up.
You stop, and looked at me
I told you to continue, but you ran toward me and hold my hand.
You smiled and waited.
We ran again, but this time you are holding my hand.
I can feel your love
Your care
I feel secure, that I am not alone this time
You are telling me that you’ll be there
You telling me that you’ll never leave me
And I’ll hold on to you
Because I believe in you.
The door is now in front of us,
I looked at you and you smile, telling me to open it,
So I did.
I was shocked, it wasn’t the same dark sky,
It was full of stars, giving me hope that I’ll escape this tower.
I let go from you hand and looked at the stars.
“It’s so beautiful!”
Then I looked at you
But you’re gone
Where are you?
I looked and roam around the rooftop,
I even went inside the tower again,
But you’re nowhere to be found.
I’m alone again.
I sat at the edge of the roof top looking down
If I’ll jump, everything will be the same again
What should I do?
I have no one to run.
I heard footsteps, so I looked back
And there was you
I smiled
I thought you left me
But you didn’t wore the smile you used to wear
“What happened? Where did you go?”
“Sorry” you said,
And you pushed me,
As I took my journey down to earth, I looked at you
I can’t control my emotion
I’m crying,
You are my reason to fight,
But you pushed me to destruction.
How could someone who made you smile, can also make you cry?
Hey ground! We meet again.
