On Edge

 

Always on edge

trying to balance it all out

tight as a rope

ready to snap


when to speak

when to shout

both are filled with fear and doubt


The control it takes is a waste of space

worry not

speak

Learn to listen with grace


No sighs

no muffled words under breath

speak loud and clear

for all to hear


Listen


Does it have a nice ring

Is it clear and seen


Maybe


Maybe it stabs like a knife

the words and tone cold as ice


It stings

It stings!


Desperate for relief

pleading for help

let it be a dream,

and wake from this private Hell.
