Deliver me
From the pit I stand at
Teetering at the precipice
Flirting with disaster
Just hoping for a little strength to take the step back
Or the push that sends me over the edge
Flying off
And plummeting below
Watch me
As I dance at the surface
And tease the demons lurking beneath me
And as I cross the point of no return
Pray for me
That I find the chance to turn around
From the path that leads me astray
Test me
As I keep up my games
And distract myself from my responsibilities
Give me hope
And hold your breath
As I choose to bathe myself in darkness
And tumble with the secrets and desires of evils far beyond me
Just keep holding on
As I careen around in the shadows
As I try to disappear
