Little Steps
The edge is so close
 I feel like if I just kept walking
 that I would forget to fall
 and just keep walking
 forward and forward
 stepping closer
 ever closer
 to the end
 quickly
 Walk faster
 Don't trip up
 Don't even think
 Just take longer steps
 The edge is so very close
 I'm going to miss it now I know
 I'm going to walk straight past it
 one little step
 and I walk right past
 forward and outward
 pushing the air out of my way
 as I imprint myself on the light
  
 that's falling from the clouds
 and the world beneath me erupted
 their screams of horror, so petty
 I was flying and free from them
 They're screaming in jealousy
 As I soar forward in the bright sky
 Buildings and windows rushing past
 Vertically
 Why would they be going up?
 Were the buildings flying upwards?
 Why would they do that
 It's not fair, I could fly first
 They just copied me
 I did it first
 I took little steps
 And look how far it got me
