Cliff

Most my life I felt like I was on a cliff
Waiting for someone to shove me off
At least emotionally off the cliff
Now it feels like I'm staring at the abyss

Wanting to jump off the cliff
Let the abyss consume me
I doubt I'd be missed by many
Yet I can't make the jump

I'm just teetering on the edge of the cliff
Some days the abyss seems so fucking tempting
Yet no matter how tempting
I still can't make the jump

Even if the cliff would lead to love
I'm still not able to make the jump
I just stare blankly at the unknown of the abyss
Wondering when will I get the courage

Say fuck it and jump
The abyss is just staring at me
With the same blank stare I'm giving it

Yet it feels like we understand each other
The abyss is my ash burdened soul
Yet even if we understand each other
Does little to comfort me

It makes me want to jump even more
The abyss will it take the pain away 
Will the abyss make me forget
Forget what hell I grew up in

Forget myself hatred
Forget myself pity
Forget how much of a fuck up I am
Who's to say surely not me
