Klonopin.
Pounding heart.
Racing thoughts.
Slipping from a cliff’s edge.
I succumb to gravity.
Falling fast.
Crumbling world.
I never learned to fly.
Such an unforgiving fate.
Gasp for air.
Can’t fill lungs.
Scream out a cry for help.
Said words unheard, impotent.
Pounding.
Falling.
Screaming.
Place it in you palm.
Put it in your mouth.
Drink water.
Swallow it down.
Stillness.
Ground.
