A Poem: "Desperation"

"Desperation"

Falling from the sky

Holding my breath

Wishing for hope

As no one knows

On the tip of a mountain

On the tip of my toes

Don't know how to fly

So I balance, I groan

The sweat wants to pour

But yet its not time

Holding them back

As I'm biting the wire

I can't turn around

Cause then they'll all see

It's be so much easier

If pity was free

But the toll must be paid

So someone will dance

With a fire to their feet

If they want a last chance

And that last chance I need

Brings me down to my knees

With everyone watching

They silently scream

With that look in their eye

They all want to tear 

A little piece please

For a cold souvenir

And so I keep dancing

Till my feet are on fire

Because love aint enough

Despite my desire
