forget the ending

fingertips numb, lips gone blue
the sun stole the moon
the birds wrote love songs
the air seemed different
the feeling of the day changed
violent thoughts bleach my mind a different color today
blank
i stared at the floor it seemed new
my wrinkled shirt brought no recelection of it being mine
i ran down the steps
searched for the door
waved to some people who called to me
not remebering a single thing
ran to the pavement
threw myself down
people crowded
i just laughed not knowing what i'd done
i ran away jumped off the bridge
ran away from all id done
