It begins like this...

i'm waiting in terror on the edge
waiting for everything I love
and cant live without
to disappear forever.

i'm sure it's going to happen
like that.
they'll see who I really am and
decide they've had enough.

like a voice in the wilderness;
chalk on the sidewalk.
the rain washed it away...
a thought that someone like me
forgot to remember;
forgot to write down.

gone with
the hope
the hate
the love
the bitterness
the wish and
the fear.

everything we want to keep,
to cling to...
gone
the way of everything
that's ever been cherished.
