Kinda smells but och well.

I’m The Gingerbread Man

Flying on the razor sharp
Edge of something high
Chew on words, spit ‘em out
And roll them ‘cross the sky

Run still muscles snap and spin
And dive headfirst downhill
As bands across a swollen chest
Crack and contents spill

Finger nails run ‘cross the skin
And paint a rainbow of extreme
That dribbles down your chin
And merges with a scream

Run headfirst into the wall
And knot your limbs for good
No one knows and knows no one
And no one understood!

Blast out the notes and nails
Until your ears bleed noise
Spit on reason, rhyme and ruse
And beat and stamp on poise

Flying on the razor sharp
Edge of something high
Take it, leave it, just know its a
Feeling I can’t describe.

Well I think you described it perfectly.

Adored this.

Very much a keeper.

that sounded like a wonderful poem also it was interesting to read. i think you described the feeling inside just right. besides stray ends will always be there the things we dont say today will show up some other time.
