Waiting
Standing on the precipice
Toes curling over the edge
How sharp the cut of rock
Sliced away a million years ago
How I dare invade to stand
So close to infinity without permission
This is a place of wanting
My heart sliced open trying
To find what’s left of my grace
If I have to sacrifice everything
To bring you back to me
Now after all the ruin and pain
I will on this edge
Of what comes next
I am humbled by the course of time
The way water seeks the ocean
The way the earth spins and
Makes the sun and moon rise and set
I have no right to certainty
Even if I crave its comfort
I stand here alone
In the all of the world
Waiting for you
To allow me back
My broken soul
