I feel so restless, I’m always on edge
I've nowhere to go, my options are few
There's a downward spiral, I'm on the ledge
Take my hand and I'll pull you down, too
I look at myself, an expressionless face
With eyes so dark that no one could see
There's a stairwell that leads to an empty place
Stay here and I'll take you down with me
There's a twisted path where weeds have grown
With dark, murky waters to walk through
It's a descending maze and I travel alone
Let me go or I'll bring you down, too
There are many things I'll never make right
There's a jar full of memories, some only confuse
It's a deep, dark well with no end in sight
I float on the bottom, along with my muse
About the Creator
Kristin Brown
Writing is my passion, storytelling is my escape, poetry is the best therapist ever. It’s equal parts helium and lead. It’s both butterfly and albatross. It’s 100% sending my child into the world, hoping you’ll like her for who she is.
