"What do you do,when you have nothing to live for.
When your dreams are left behind,
and you have no one.No one to comfort,or
love you."
I lowered my head and stared at the cold ground,and yet i still felt her gaze.
Her curious gaze penetrating my mind,reading my thoughts.For awhile the room was deathly silent,making it feel like a waiting room.I sat there for what
seemed like hours,and finaly i felt her gaze leave my thoughts.I looked up
only to find her staring at her watch."Times up,i'm sorry but you have to go now.I'll see you tommorrow," I left.
"She didn't do anything,she didn't talk,or even come close to me.What did she do,waste my money?" I looked down at my open wallet.Finding only one hundred dollars."Where is my other hundred?" I sighed and sat down on a park bench.Everything was silent until the sound of a young girl bouncing her ball filled my ears.I looked up and found my her staring at me."Are you ok mr.?"
she watched me wide eyed and curious.Somehow she knew how i felt.I started to reply but was cut off by a woman yelling."Well i got to go mr. hope you feel better." She quickly hugged me and ran off.I watched the direction she ran off in for a moment,and closed my eyes and fell asleep.
"My day?I was kicked out my apartment.I have only fifty dollars in my wallet,
and my back hurts from falling asleep on a park bench."
She simply stared at me,not replying.
lights red,white,and blue flashed in my face,leaving me slightly blind.
which made it harder to keep my balance on the ledge.I stared down at the large crowed,being forced back by cops."What is he doing?Is he going to jump?" That and the sound of sirens was all i heard.I turned and looked back at the window i had snuck out,when the women left to go to the bathroom.I looked at the sky in front of me,and was ready to jump.Until i saw her down in the crowd.the young girl from the park.
"What are you doing?!" I turned surprised to see the therapist standing right next to me on the ledge."Forget it your not going to stop me!" I slowly inched away from her."I just want to talk." I stoped and looked down at the ground.I was mad,mad at her for saying that."Now you want to talk?!Now?!Well then tell me!What do you do when you have nothing else to live for?!" I turned once again ready to jump,but suddenly she grabbed me hand.I turned and looked at her.She was crying and looked like she was going to jump to "I'm trying to figure out my self." I looked down at the girl "Look away." i whispered,and with that we jumped

Very simple and an enjoyable read.
Is there a reason that besides the main character, the rest are nurturing females?
You know what doesn't suit this piece? The title. Perhaps I'm just dim-witted but where is the truth in it?
All in all, you get a 4.
