Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Neurotic thoughts invade my head Chaotic twists on all things said. Taking me closer to the chasm's edge. Quaking steps bear me to the ledge. Feel them beckoning inside my mind Taking a reckoning of what I might find. When I finally just let myself go. Taking my chances with what's down below. Pick up sticks have fallen again.
