Poems
Dec 2009
cliff
Above the entire world
Held onto the cliff of life by fingers
I climb toward an unreachable end
Toward an end with you
To feel the air of darkness swirl around us
To interlock fingers with an angel in night
But my heart is breaking down
Rocks crack beneath my fingers
A hand wrenched loosed
I've spun to face the night
Etched in darkness I see nothing
Yet I know what lies below
An entire world of agony
Pain so great I spent my life climbing away
Up into night I rose
Choosing to follow you taken by death
Cradled in his arms you left
He washed my tears from you
My hold begins to slip
Fingers start to break
I tumble through darkness
Falling away from you
Through clouds I pass
I see what should be my end
An eternity of pain bound to my shoulders
Drives me into dagger filled ground
My screams unheard
Tear through silent night
I rip myself from hells covered ground
But soon I must walk
Walk back to the cliff
Back to the climb
My broken wings will never fly
My forsaken soul will never die
