swing life away

what do i do on my first day?
jump off a building!

we were walking by some apartments
and i saw a guy standing on his roof,
and then jumping off onto a tiny piece of wood tied to a tree.

his friend asked if anyone else wanted to
and i remembered a speech i heard yesterday
the guy told us to try everything,

so,


got up on the roof.. grabbed the block, which was as big as my forearm,stood there for about ten minutes, swearing have having second thoughs..
but i did it! i mean,
i couldn't climb up the roof
just to climb back down with my tail between my legs.

the guy in the green told me that i was the second girl to ever go on it.
