Silent Secrets Chapter 3 (Over the Edge)

Over the Edge...

It’s like I’m grasping

for that edge, the knife

of life that can bring back

all that was lost.

It’s like I’m an empty

space, like I’m just an

object left for people

to stare at.

They laugh at me,

berate me and put

me down. All just cruel

games of torture.

It tears me up inside,

but I know I can’t let

that weakness, that flaw

show.

If I do, they’ll use it

against me, bring all the

pain out, the haunting

memories.

Never forget how special this site is: the older I get, the more I realize how many lonely writers there are who have only family and maybe some friends to read their works. The fact we get free critique, nightly writing pads, free contests and unlimited interaction at *no cost* with people genuinely wanting to help, can not be overstated or overrated
