speaking of unmentionables!
"A new game I think we should all become proficient at. In order to succeed in the world as we know it..."

hmm, since we seem to be posting our recent poems/lyrics/whatever (mine goes under "whatever") here's my humble contribution.

Break My Fall

I'm holding out and holding on
And waiting just to hear your song
I'm laying still and laying low
Hoping for this day to go, away.

I'm still alone and face the wind
Without a hand to help me in
I'm only one, and so very small
Please do you hear me? Break my fall.

I've tried to stand and be so strong
The pain I have is now my song
I wanted peace, but what I found
Brings me low, back to the ground

I would have said that I love you
But would that really help me through?
I gave my best and gave my all!
Help me now, help break my fall.

In my life, it's a downward climb
Break my fall!
Every little bit, every single time.
Break it all!
In my hope there's no return
Break my fall!
Forget the past and all I learned
Break it all!
In all my love I'm always wrong.
Break my fall!
Leaves me now, with a broken song!
Break it all!
Break my fall!
Break it all!
Break my fall!

I'm still standing, so you see
But if you could see, see inside of me
I'm nothing much, just an empty word
Broken and bleeding, still unheard

I made my choices and seen'em through
Yeah, it hurts me to do the things I do
But I ask for one thing, answer this call
I'm asking you to save me, please,
break my fall.
