whatever is needed to be said

fall

can i fall

into a pit of nothing

 and never come out?

i'll make it my home

warm and comfortable

silent and isolated

tears can be dried with dirt

clothes can be sewn with sweat

souls can never be mended

on their own

but i'll keep falling

and falling

into my pit

will you help me climb out

when the time feels right?

will you wait

for a smile

upon my lips?

if i fall

will you catch me

or walk away

like the rest?

let me fall

into darkness

if you'll be my light
