Over the Edge

We come to our own center of the world
Where all faces fade into darkness
All I see is you
No longer here in this room
My mind will never rest
And will never forget
Memory is the only link to you
Though imagination kills
Still we lie there
Infants nursing our pain
But this is not the way the universe
Gripped by these bitter hands
Bitter all the way
Love is nowhere there
In that place of pride and self
Not there
But in the growth of all
Point me to the exit and I’ll go
You will find me over the edge
Into space and here and now
You will find me over the edge
Here and now
No one can erase the past
As witnessed by the stars
But the world can never wait
For anyone to start
