That Crazy Window Ledge

You say I'm crazy to
Hold onto love or recognition
But my insanity insists on
Wearing you like a decoration
There's a weary window ledge
Once held a set of footprints
Emblazoned with some bleak knowledge
Of hopeless resignation
A thought or two to lift me up
I'm thinking
You're not the end of the story
Merely one short chapter
That's all that keeps me off that
Ledge
