Swaying atop an unstable cliff
Unsure yet still standing strong
You saved me once again
As always
You save me
But it is also you
Who pushes me off
The treacherous cliff
Falling
Falling hard
Into the chasm
Almost reaching
The unforgiving frigid water
And then
I am once again
Saved
By you
Reaching your hand out
Comforting and rewarding
But only to repeat
This seemingly endless cycle
Shortly after
Over and over
Somehow
I am willing
To endure this pain
And heartache
For those little moments
And I will wait
To the end of the world
And beyond
Just for another one
I am willing to suffer
Even if it is hopeless

A dim flickering light
Blinks it's last goodbye
Not going out with a flash
But instead slowly fading away

Just like my passion
For everything I once enjoyed
And endless dark
Covering my only love

The art has disappeared
And my heart has gone
No passion flows
No interest grows

A sickening depression
Takes away the passion
Fading like a light
I fear
That it is gone
Forever

All I can feel
Is the constant pull
That plunges me downward
Until I am pushed
To the edge
Once again

A constant struggle
With pills and drinks
Living and dying

Silently in the abyss
That swallows me whole

You call this a life?

From the vast nothingness
I see a smile
A smile that is unmistakable
A smile that warms the hearts
Of all those it reaches
A smile that gives hope
A smile that teaches to see the good
In even the most
Treacherous beings
I see your smile
Your gentleness radiates from it
And it is the one thing
That keeps this lost little one
From sinking further
Into the frigid ocean
