this is technically a first draft but it took me FOREVER to figure out the right words for it and I'm really excited to post it so bear with me thanks okay love u 
i think im able to be so easily vulnerable because i know nobody can hear me
standing over this cliff,
ive made clear my plans to jump
screamed them to everyone in earshot
begged for someone to stop me
or believe me
or just hear me.
my pleas continue with every step
as i look down the dizzying drop,
as i sit, and let my legs hang over,
as i close my eyes and count to three,
if a tree falls in the forest,
and nobody's around,
did that tree falling make a sound?
ive always hated that question,
but i think it applies now
for if my thoughts, words, and actions
had so little an affect on the universe
i was dead long before my body hit the ground.
