Everyone thinks his leap of faith is
like a trust fall
or talking about his dark past.
most people don’t consider jumping off a bridge
to be his leap of faith
Perhaps faith that it will end in darkness
or faith he will survive and
someone will finally ask why
or faith no one will go looking for him
or maybe just maybe
he leaps from the bridge so that the people pulling him back will finally
let go
and let him fall
and let him be alone.
finally.
