threads

 
 
 
 
hanging by a
thread bare
thread
 
one single  
strand
 
sometimes
that's all is
left
 
to save us
from:
 
a failed love  
 
the mad house
 
the monster
within
 
so don't look  
down
 
and hold on
tight for:
 
another minute  
 
another second  
 
another  
eternity
 
and if you do grow
tired  
if you let go and
fall  
 
understand that
you are not the
only one
 
many others have  
fallen
 
a few have even
managed to climb
up and out again  
 
so don't look
back
 
pray if you
must
 
but be one of  
the few

for the few will
go places the
many can never
dream of
