The Low End Of A Mood Swing

Folder: 
Blah

Swinging from branch to branch

I lean perilously close to an edge

Of a horizon I could never reach the end of

Until I find myself swinging

Somewhere on the low end of a mood swing

Drifting and falling

Slowly

Until I fall into you

Floating somewhere over the middle of the ocean

Over the craggy rocks that lie below

Over the death and destruction of the hell beneath.

You catch me and hold me

Whispering in my ear that it'll all be alright

But I don't trust you

Because I can see the ocean crashing below us

Waiting to swallow the darkness of my soul

And the rest of what used to be me.

Swinging from breeze to breeze

We climb out of the depths of the sky

Finding footing on a solid ground

That I couldn't find on my own

You caught me on the low end of a mood swing

And brought me to land

Teaching me that maybe

When I start to fall

I won't always fall to the bottom.
