Straying from a straight line slipping from lifes tightrope, Walking on the edge, where ocean blends with sky, I fall away. In these moments, free-floating thoughts refuse to sink in- I'm alone again, once more washed upon and empty shore, the only place, Im left alone- you sought me out to find your self again, left me with no defense, then tore me down- I cannot feel this way- I locked myself away in an attempt to find somone else to hide behind, refusing to love, refusing to fill, refusing to fall, until you, did you know I took it this far? Sold myself for these scars? Now as before, I feel the same. Empty, and falling, it can't be real again, are you happening? Im losing sleep again sorting this out, but im stuck between all thats real and the hope you seemed. You are so far over my head, sand slips beneath my feet- Ive stood against tonight, and held on for tomorrow, you dropped me when I fell, and laughed when I lay at your feet once again- now I cant stand alone, unsturdy as I am- without you.
