It hurts so badly
Between the precipice that balances
 How this world will choose
 On this wire thin trapeze
 I look upwards at the cooling molten
 That makes up my world
 And wonder where he is
 Will he come back
 To take this weight
 From my disease wrought shoulders?
 This world that I have made
 Will not remain steady much longer
 As the wire digs into my feet
 And I sway dangerously
 Clasping the world with my hands
 Trying to keep it from falling
 Where is he?
 Come back
 So I may relieve my weight
 And rejoin the ones who have
 Already left my side
 This is what he had made me into
 This is what he had cursed me to
 For being a dreamer, a thinker
 Come back, I'm in pain!
 I wish to keep this world balanced
 But I am so tired
 So terribly tired
 Come back!
 I'M SORRY!
