Leap

I step off, not sure why, even with the ground taunting me. My fear came alive, twisting my heart. I can’t stop now that I’ve left the edge, so I shut my eyes tight and prey for wings. I feel my body shift and levitate and I look down at a light blue blotched ground.

Yet it’s not the ground, but the sky!

I look up at the earth, the earth that inches past me covered in streets and buildings, cars and people, trees and grass.  I reach out, wishing that I could touch the roof tops of buildings and poke the moving cars and people.

But everything vanishes, shattering into bits of light then evaporating into nothing.

Nothing is all that’s left, and I’m fine with that... for now
