I’ve never felt 

So alive

And yet 

So close 

So on the verge 

So on the edge

Like a great 

Discovery 

Too good to

Be true

Like

Sometimes 

 I can feel

The heart beat

Of exactly 

Where I’m supposed to be

And all the lights 

Shine 

Like the fates

Have all lined

Up

With torches 

Of fire 

And of passion 

And then 

Sometimes 

The cold reality

So near 

And yet 

So far

Close enough to touch 

But not quite 

Hold

Like a dream

Slipping through 

Memory 

As the day breaks

The night 

And brings reality

Crashing back

To a world 

That was 

Never

Very real

In the 

First 

Place 

The mirror 

Washes 

The truth 

Away

Like an idea 

Of glass

There is a difference 

Between what we 

Think we

See

And what stands

Before us

Flashing 

For all 

Eternity 

And I dare you 

To stand between the 

Cracks

And let it 

swallow up 

Whatever you 

Thought

Was left
