I

Just a random little something I came up with. Forgive the idiocy.

I find
that I have nothing left
to offer.
I find
that opening up my hands to the world
will reveal a pile of dust
and sand
in the center.

I feel
that there is something
more to life than this.
I feel
that there is something
less to love than we claim there is.
Because if love doesn't hurt,
then why is it that I'm falling into pieces

I hear
a sound; a note; a melody
a memory
I hear
a familiar song; a familiar tune
playing, teasing, haunting.
It is reminding me of the part of me
that peers over the edge while thinking of dying.

And it scares me.
It scares me to death.
Like the way we kissed,
it steals my breath.
