.: StAnDiNg On EdGe :.

Lord I killed myself today
I needed something to take away the pain
I tried so hard to run away
One step at a time 
Till I realized
 Their were no more for me to climb.
Death was waiting for me at the top
 Disguised as myself
I thought
I finally was okay
Come Sit by me 
I think I said
So I crawled over
Cautiously
But how 
Could I be staring
At a reflection of my self
Or
Was the real me finally out.

I was a wolf in sheeps clothing
Pretending to be who I wasn't 
Being undressed by Death 
One Bandaid at a time

We talked
About everything
My fears,
My woes,
My regrets,
For a week 
Or
For a hour
I lost track.
You were pulling in my anchor
Telling me you had a way out.
Into my own rabbithole we crept

A tunnel of memories,
Hurtful and Happy.
Back to the roof
That we met.
Now with both legs.
I stood at the ledge.
 Seeing all the people I made happy
All the people I loved,
You told me to turn around
Suddenly I was Death
Pushing the only part of me that ever existed
 Watching myself fall in to the ground
A tear rolled down my cheek.
A tear of joy
A tear of regret.

Lord I thought I killed myself today.
I dreamt a way to end my pain.
