The Fence

Time is imminent,
life immense.
I can't come down,
from this towering fence.

One side's peace,
the other depth.
I need them both,
or I have nothing left.

Take my hand,
remind me now.
I messed up,
but my mind was sound.

The path is dark,
the corners cold.
I don't know why,
you were never told.

Please forgive me.
Please let me go.
Please still love me.
Just let me know.

I can't stop spinning.
The water's deep.
But, the thought of drowning,
is just too bleak.

Maybe next time,
or someone else.
I just have to,
except myself.
