The Balancing Act of the Unbalanced

 
I stand teetering
at the edge of
the abyss
divided
I am half sorrow
and half bliss
fully mad
a monster
unmasked
stumbling while
my shadows only
laugh
whispering
to the voices
speaking back
“just let go”
yet I am still
holding even as
I feel myself
fall
into the depths
of my ghosts
as they call
