Every Day

Every day he came to the edge.
Every day he looked down over it.
Every day he saw the rocks, the water.
Every day he took a breath.
Every day he felt the urge to jump.
Every day he told himself he shouldn't.
Every day he thought about those he'd leave.
Every day he lifted one foot.
Every day he brought it back down.
Every day he turned around again.
Every day he walked back.
Every day he wondered if tomorrow was the day.
Every day he survived.
Every day he ensured was the same.

Until the day that wasn't.
