I don't know how much longer I can hang on hope. I don't know how much strength I have left I'm weak and tired and want to let go So that I may fall to my death So fast it would happen, just a slip of my grip Slickened by blood stained palms Spiraling towards me, the ground just a blur And I would be nothing but calm But right now I'm dangling freely Fear pumping fast through aching veins The harder I grip, the more that I slip The sliced skin increasing the pain I want to scream Let this be a dream So that I can wake up in due time. Because if I slip Loose my hardened grip The surely I'll lose all that is mine.

Slipping
