He stands on a cliff called love Overlooking the abyss I call out behind him He’s ready. He backtracks along the rocky surface My face turns dark The earth beneath him gives way He’s falling. He reaches out Clawing at the darkness My hands grab his He’s safe. I stand on a cliff called love Overlooking the abyss He calls out behind me I’m ready. I backtrack along the rocky surface His face turns dark The earth beneath me gives way I’m falling. I reach out Clawing at the darkness The abyss swallows me I’m alone. - t.h.

A Cliff Called Love
He stands on a cliff called love Overlooking the abyss I call out behind him He’s ready. He backtracks along the rocky surface My face turns dark The earth beneath him gives way He’s falling. He reaches out Clawing at the darkness My hands grab his He’s safe. I stand on a cliff called love Overlooking the abyss He calls out behind me I’m ready. I backtrack along the rocky surface His face turns dark The earth beneath me gives way I’m falling. I reach out Clawing at the darkness The abyss swallows me I’m alone. - t.h.
