Lines of a Broken Soul

Emotional Precipice

I've lost my way through this forest of emotions.

I race one way and end up on the precipice of a cliff.

I try to step carefully but I begin to fall.

I close my eyes not wanting to see the end.

I wait for the pain but nothing happens.

I open my eyes and find a maze.

I have only one way out but which way is right?

I now must tread carefully or end up in a dead end.

My steps grow faster and faster as I begin to race through this maze.

I turn the corner and find the way out.

I run to the exit, only to find that I do not want to leave.

Something that I wrote back in May 2010. It described how I felt.
