[bodytext] => The only dead end to nowhere Found at the edge of my sorrow Wishing always I could meet you there Breaking down and taking my time Wipe my eyes so dry Bloodshot and tired Dust off the edge I couldn't feel any different All these reasons I'll never know Taking my life one step at a time Is this rate too fast or am I too slow? Squint blue eyes against the torment Needles all down my back Poking for an answer A will waiting to crack Dreaming and sleeping Shaking off my endless apologies Ugly sunsets forever Dusting off the edge Lonely whispers that crush me Bury me into the ground Softly uttered echoes Strain to hear the sound Wake up in the orange Lights flow through windows Wake me up later And forget those things we'll never know Take my own life so slowly Help me empty my mind Sweep up the pieces left from me The cracked glass from my head Hide these long lost feelings under the rug And then you can dust off the edge The edge of the sorrow The only emotion I was ever promised The edge of eternity Waiting for something always missed Set my examples Roll those tears down my face Walking quicker through my dreams And rush to be awake Make me over somehow Meet me at my dead end to nowhere We can look for the edge together Dust that never goes away The dust that settles on my body The dust that settles on the edge A long lost particle Seems to scream my fate Dust off the edge And please dust off my body I grow so weary here while I wait [comments] => 1 [counter] => 146 [topic] => 13 [informant] => Exodus-On-Life [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => DarkPoetry )
