The Edge

The Edge

A Poem by Rosie Brooklin

As the rain falls gently outside my window,
my soul dives into you.
Even the most eloquent of poets could not describe the view.

Dickinson would lose her words, and Frost would drop his pen.
I know when you were created, She knew not where to begin.

Your scars stretch far across your skin and travel to my heart.
Your weary eyes shatter me, and I fear that we should part.

You're blotted ink on parchment;
I try to make a picture.
But even Van Gogh would stop and stare
Because you're so obscure.

Every time you tremble, my mind begins to shake.
You hold such power over me, I'm skating on an earthquake.

If I could take this pain from you, I'd give my only soul.
Because you are a landslide and I am just a stone.
