A Sweetness I Should Have Feared

A small voice whispers in my ear,
It tells me all that I should fear.
Should I listen and survive?
Or should I try to helplessly thrive?

Will a person be able to win,
If they were to finally give in.
There is a building so tall,
I look from the top, and I fall.

The wind rushes around me, wraps me.
Envelopes me in a sweet hug, embraces me.
I have felt the love I have longed to feel.
Then the voices persuade me to heal.

I flail, but I am long too late.
My life flashes, the one I used to hate.
I cry, my tears fall with the rain.
I'm over that terrifying pain.

But death binds me, forever bound.
And the voices are no where to be found.
And I now know, what I should've feared.
It was the pleasant voices in my ear.
