Tiptoe the Precipice

written by: Benjamin R Bray

@MrBray317

Crossing lines

In both positive

And negative

Directions

Directions

Drawn as lines

Written as lines

That curve and cross

Forming guides

Forming commands

So you tell yourself

To go one way

Sometimes you follow that line

Walking backwards along your edge

Your limit

Just as you begin to believe

That old lines fade

As new lines are etched

At the edge of the light

Pushing back the darkness

You are shown the truth

In the blindness

The old lines

Never fade

They wait in the falsified light

Made deceptively real

By the encroaching darkness
