I Walk The Line

I walk the line between confidence and suicide, A delicate balance, a tightrope to abide.

One step too far, and the fall is so deep, The darkness below, a secret I keep.

The world sees my strength, my unwavering stride, But inside, a battle rages, a war I can't hide.

Confidence, a mask I wear with such grace, Hiding the turmoil that dwells in this place.

The line is so thin, a razor's edge to tread, Uncertainty looms, a constant dread.

Yet, I press on, determined to find my way, Hoping to reach the light of a brighter day.
