Life On the Verge

Like a candle that is slowly melting With the wind its flame is flickering Its light is fading as it regress As its wick becomes less and less They say a man who’s on the edge Will grab a knife, blood on its blade When in doubt and you hesitate Do what is right, in God have faith! His world is spinning and He is dizzy It’s like Vertigo, take it easy He’s out of breath and deeply in pain All of these things, is it in vain? Looking up He’s going blind Questions hanging in his mind Leaving his loved ones behind Answers soon He hopes He’d find A gulp of air last taken His heart stops and limbs stiffen His eyelids are slowly closing As life is gone and tears are falling
