As the Spring's winds make azure curtains billow,
the rose wilts.

Fly.

Do you still think
It's all a game?
Do you still think
I'm that same 'girl'
You used to know?
The person in the mirror?

I've lost the ability
To dream
To be happy
And if you can't do that
Then what's the point?

I'm dangling off the edge
All it'll take
Is one more push
And then I'll be gone.

Looking down
30 stories up
The pavement
Has never looked
So welcoming.

It's been going on too long
I've been walking up the stairs
Slowly but surely
I've crept to the edge.

I've sharpened the knife
And emptied the bottle

I'm going to see
If I can fly.
This one isn't good, but it's how I feel. I've tried to improve on it but this is all I could do. I doubt it but if you read it, I hope you like it.

Feel so loved
Out of my mind
Your eyes of gold

I felt love once

Now I'm feeling it from someone else

Felt love for you

Making promises
that lay broken
In shattered glass

Felt so loved by you

Now it's from someone else

My love for you
was beautiful

Like waking up to the sun at the bottom of a window

It lasted for days
Died when the night fell

My mind is a web of
Silk
and String
That I cannot fathom into a
Tapestry
Jumbled and confused in this big, endless world.
