Phew.

Phew.

A Poem by featherstoflight

I almost slipped onto the ledge 
from which I was trying to fall. 

Without hesitation I reached for salvation
gripping the edge of Hell's unfailing wall. 

I now realize I must cut the hands that caused me sorrow. 
I fetch the knife from under my tongue and fall into tomorrow.
