Don't Jump

You can't take that final jump.
You can't close your eyes and lean forward,
you just can't.
She needs you.
Look into her eyes and see how much she needs you.
Can't you see it?
She loves you, she looks up to you,
you have to see that.
You are her world,
her anchor, what will she have when you are gone?
How will she know whats right form wrong?
How can she smile when her very world had crashed down around her.
Could you imagine what that must be like?
Your sister,
the one you look up to,
your immortal, your everything, the one who makes you cry but you know she doesn't mean it.
Could you imagine that disappearing in front of you?
The one thing you held so closely, slip away into the sky,
never to be seen again.
Left to lay beneath the ground,
untouchable, unhuggable.
No warmth, no air.
Could you imagine standing beside the casket looking down upon your sister,
her rich skin colour, faded into a pale grey,
her once breath taking eyes, closed for eternity never to open again,
her soft red lips, pink and flaky.
What would that feel like,
to know your best friend and living angel won't come into your room at night and kiss you on the forehead, whisper goodnight and smile.
What would it be like to no longer have sleep overs and giggle about video games and insignificant things?
You can't take the jump,
you just can't,
she needs you more than you realize,
your are her sky, her ground, her sun and her rain.
You light up her face,
you can't do it,
not now, not yet,
just wait please,
she loves you,
and I know you love her.
