Cliffhanger
This place is my serenity.
This place is my sanctuary.
I dare you to take it away,
before I leave it myself.
It's not so far down,
It's not so bad they are only stones-
beneath the kidnapping waves-
before you hit the sharp granite-
which barely touches the waters surface.
It's not so bad you know,
relying on fate,
testing your faith,
because before you lose it all,
before you're merely a memory-
and loved ones cry before your tombstone-
you have ultimate freedom,
testifying the laws of gravity,
living in the breeze,
living the dream you can never complete.
Before you lose it all
