My heart is filled with pain

There is nothing more to gain

With each storey that I fall I can feel my life slowly drain

My fist clenches the necklace you gave to me

All of my love I gave to thee

But I wasn't enough, nor as grand as she

With each window that I pass

My fate had been forecast

Today will be my last

I'll no longer be around

Once I hit the ground

And my letter shall be found

They'll read of my love for my fiancé

And how each day I would pray

Hoping the rumors weren't as they say

But I couldn't keep him happy

Not like she

His heart never belonged to me

We were set to marry in June

But I came to the Empire State Building at noon

I gazed at the street, 86 floors below, and the moment to jump seemed opportune

My death will set him free

He is much better off without me

I wouldn't make a good wife for anybody

I hardly know a thing about poetry, except for the simple fact that it allows me to harness my anger and depression into something I can be proud of. Hopefully someone else enjoys it too.
