Some morning I awake To find myself tittering on the precipice. Hair-thin strands of faith Keep me dangling. In times of strength I can almost weave them Into durability; But I find then snapping Like a guitar string I wonder between sanity and psychosis And though I fear the abyss This uncertainty Finds me longing to cut the strings. How much longer can I endure? This mind that I remember to be strong Somehow isn't And knowing that Almost frightens me more Than the dark uncertainty. When Did death began to look Like salvation?

Standing on the Precipice
Some morning I awake To find myself tittering on the precipice. Hair-thin strands of faith Keep me dangling. In times of strength I can almost weave them Into durability; But I find then snapping Like a guitar string I wonder between sanity and psychosis And though I fear the abyss This uncertainty Finds me longing to cut the strings. How much longer can I endure? This mind that I remember to be strong Somehow isn't And knowing that Almost frightens me more Than the dark uncertainty. When Did death began to look Like salvation?
