I sit upon the edge <br />My legs fall of the sides <br />The darkness waits below, <br />Hungry for my insides <br />I'm not afraid of falling <br />Exiting, don't you see? <br />I would start a journey <br />With no fear inside of me <br />perhaps a jump? <br />I seem to float <br />I'm barely falling <br />I close my eyes <br />The ground is calling <br />I stick the landing <br />And the world stops spinning <br />A new game has begun <br />I might be winning <br />A strange place I find myself <br />As empty as can be <br />Except the mist that moves around <br />Swirling like the sea <br />My hands are silver sort of shiny <br />They show my reflection <br />But all I can muster is a stare <br />That would not win a rigged election <br />I don't know why <br />But my mouth flies open <br />And words pour out <br />like i have never spoken <br />what is this place <br />I ask myself <br />A quick reply <br />From myself <br />It is heaven <br />A scream erupts <br />My lips are parted <br />I try to stop <br />but its already started <br />Then where is god <br />the stare was a smile <br />not a frown <br />head slightly tilted <br />by a heavy crown <br />you are god my boy <br />get started<br /><br />Cody Campbell<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/ode-to-empty-space/
