No Survival

Shades of gray and black,
shadows deep and menacing.
Clouds envelop the sky like the mouth of Hell swallowing Heaven.
Overlapping one another,
battling, blocking out rays of hope; rays of faith.

Extinguishing the light of the world.
I stand at the edge,
to jump or not to jump?
My breath, shallow and quick.
The fight for survival within my human hands.
My mouth opens, astounded by silence.
Nothing but defeat.
No need to fight.
No survival, I choose.
One last jump into the abyss, the unknown.

The sky turns red-
no shadows, no clouds.
Demon shadows not withstanding.
Eyes open, I await my destiny.
My breathing slows.

Nothing but a dream.
Hello Sunshine.
I'm okay.
