Blog #13: SOS
Slipping
I'm slipping
Scrambling for a grip on the edge of reality
Risking falling into the unknown
Trying to hold on
Just hold on
To the safety of the rope connecting me to what's real and what's fiction
What's beyond reason
Beyond rationality
Beyond tangibility
The rope connected to the cliff I dangle from
Trying to pull up from the rope and on to the cliff
That rope is fraying
Fraying
Fraying
Getting so thin
So weak
So small
Yet it does not snap
It stays
It holds
Yes the rope does lurch
It sways
It spins
It wavers
It turns
It moves
It shifts
But it still holds me in place
Thus the problem that has arose:
I cannot climb up from my place on this rope. Any movement can risk a snap yet balances the chance of getting to the cliff
On to ration
On to reality
On to sanity
But I cannot stay here for much longer. The rope will eventually give way and I shall plummet downwards
Towards the unknown
Towards the darkness
Towards the insanity I try to fight off
So what shall I do?
Do I stay and wait for the inevitable fall?
Or do I risk the chance of rising up to sanity but possibly falling and slipping farther down the rope?
**this is an accurate metaphor of my life and my problem right now. What do you people think I should do?
