why you leapt the rail
to meet the turquoise water
the final choice before a drop
and glowing blue death
remains a mystery
but i know
i know the reasons in
your aching heart
cut short by the watery breath
i've stood along those
towering cliffs
to face my setting sun
illuminating a jewelled mantle
beneath my feet
it would be sweet, i thought
to taste the salty brine
this moment
irrevocably mine
and time would stand still
before me
suspended in that
sparkling vacuum
i know
oh i know
