On the verge
Of I don’t know what
But greatness it is not

On the verge of walking out
On the verge I scream

On the verge of killing one
On the verge I halt

On the verge of falling off
On the verge I cry

On the verge of sleeping through
On the verge I wake

On the verge of on the verge
On the verge I die
sometimes life don't leave you alone

    "Hear me, my chiefs!
    I am tired; my heart is
    sick and sad. From where
    the sun stands I will fight
    no more forever."

    I often feel "on the verge"

    But on the verge I live......

    I am on the verge of living... I just need someone to push me over.
