Let Me Fall

Jessaka Romine
Standing on the edge
No ground in sight
Only an endless darkness
Blacker than the darkest night

How many times
Have I been to this place?
All these things in my head
That I can't seem to erase

An empty shell
And nothing more
End it now
I will finally soar

What my life has been
Is what it will always be
It cannot be changed by you
It cannot be changed by me

Let me go and I will fall
Bringing misery to an end
No hanging on for another day
Hoping my soul will mend.

I turn away yet again
To return another day
What will happen when
It doesn't end this way?
