Jagged formations
Barefoot on this narrow ledge
Thorned barriers rip flesh
Tattered jeans and ***** tee
Staring out over it all
Cold breezes prevail
Clouded visions cry
in cryptic raindrops (falling)
Pain settles thoughts
Enlightening as it is
Seeping slowly into gasping pores
Shattered dreams
Stone faced and worn
Upon bleeding knees
I hear the voices in echoes
chanting in metronome directions
One step forward
Draining that last ounce
Wrenching muscles
Past tense, present tense decisions
Chipped in granite pieces
Scattered along this last call
Pleading to fly, arms outstretched
as what was small quickly becomes larger
Roaring winds pass
Deafening cries of fractured wishes
Spinning out of control
Final moments bring light
Dark as any place
Where I shall end
In that flash leading in I see you
and ask silently if this is what you wanted
