The Edge

The sob erupts out of my mouth, filled with sadness, longing and dark thoughts

No love surrounds me

Alone

Standing on the edge of a precipice

Loose gravel falling from under my feet

I want it to take me with it

The decision made for me

Why linger?

No one cares

Not in this realm or any other

The falseness of people radiates from out of their bodies like pinpricks of light

The lights banding together with lies

Lacking any moral compass

Or empathy

Or

LOVE
