Dancing dangerously
On the brinkof despair
Twirling and prancing
Without any care
Her wings are there
As she dances alone
Breath a sigh of relief
Relax. Nothing will go wrong
Little do you know ....
The wings are broken... And so is her heart
Listless and depressed
She dances on without distress
Nearing the edge
Awaiting a pledge
Of salvation
Her dips and bends
Reflect her changing moods
Wondering if it'll ever end
Then no longer will she dangerously brood
Over what will and could be
Real or not?
Delusions of what cannot be
In her mind. A battle is fought
She glares at you
As you continue to watch her perform
To an invisible audience
She continues her sparatic form
Never letting her gaze of you
The rain that falls now gives an irradesence
"Go a head. Push me."
She says strangly
A horrid mix of sorrow and anger
She stops her dancing
Closer to the edge she's advancing
Her arms spread out
Turns around,back facing out
Eyes fixed on you
Daring you
"This is what you must do."
She says
Voice cracked and frayed
"Push me.
Kill me!
Give me this final wish!"
'What is it you hope to accomplish?
Destroying youself like this?'
She laughs, crazed with grief
You baffeled with disbelief
"To be free!"
She says simply
"There's nothing left for me!
Not here
Not anywhere!
Why do you continue to stare?"
You try to say something
Instead of continuing with nothing
Words fail you
She continues to glare at you
'Why so angry little one?
Why glare at me?
Shun me?
What is it i have done?'
Words unspoken
Expressions and emotions
Tells all
Shows all
What one cannot say or do
She collapses and screams at you
"I hate you!
Why?!
Why pass this by?!
Take my life!
Don't make me cry!"
Tears fall like rain
"I'm no longer sane!"
She cries
"Wings that cannot fly
Carry my soul to the blissful happiness I so long for!
Oh broken wings!
Give me the happiness I, for so long, sought for!"
She stands
Edge at her heels
'No!,' you give your last demand
Wanting to tell her how you feel
To her death she drops
Down the brink of despair
As tears start to drop
She could not be spared.

through the darkness that we share.
Perhaps one day she'll see,
the person that really cared...
