Standing at the brink
Looking out across the vast emptiness
Fighting and struggling with all my might
Pulling back from the jerks being forced upon me
Reaching out for the one I need more and more
Finding nothing, my hands left empty
The bitter cold overwhelms me
Skin naked and exposed to the pain
Thoughts and fears consume me
Past inflictions invade my thoughts
Feeling out of control
Lost in the pain and loneliness
One swift jerk pulls me to my toes
Consumed now by the darkness
Screaming at the top of my lungs
Looking down the mouth of misery
I fear my own fate
Alone is not for me
How do I stop this
Where can I go
Please won’t someone stop this
The tears flow like a waterfall
My pain eats me from the inside out
One more pull and my footing is lost
Free falling
Face first
Into the abyss that lies before me
My cries are muffled and lost in the dark
