(Not) Falling
I'm leaning waaaay out
Over the crumbling edge
Toes teetering precariously
Perched upon the ledge
Long gaze lingering
On the nothingness below
Longing for the plunge
As I joyfully let go
Momentum surges forward
At last, here comes relief
But suddenly I stop
In suspended disbelief
Vice grip on my shoulders
Mysterious force reaches out
I'm stuck staring downward
Upon my desired route
I yearn for release
I ache to take the leap
But Insomnia won't set me free
To plummet into Sleep
Insomnia is a cruel mistress
