    The light
    Standing on the edge I wait
    Looking over I would surely fall
    My mind wanders and I can see the end
    I have no time left any more
    Everything depends on which way
    One step forward, or one step back
    When did it come to this
    How did I get to this place
    Despair and depression wallow in me
    Where is my peace and why did it go
    Will I ever stop drowning in the dark
    I ask myself all this as I look for the light

    One step forward or one step back-been there on that edge. Keep looking for the light, it is there, just sometimes hard to find. Good job on the write.

    Whenever I see my life as being less than what I want it to be, I realize I'm comparing it to someone else's. Envy will always lead to the same place - The edge.... This is a fantastic piece - 10 from me

    When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

    John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
