Brink of Despair

Kirameki Izumi

Standing alone at the brink of despair and destruction.

Tears running slowly down my cheeks

I look up to the heavens and ask the Gods why.

What have I done to deserve this pain?

Why must I feel this uncertainty and confusion?

How can I be alive yet feel so dead inside?

My heart has been shattered.

There is nothing left but emptiness.

My love for you was too strong.

When I realized you could never be mine…

The pain was far too great for me to bear…

And my soul was completely shattered.

I wish to myself that she had never existed.

I wish she would disappear from this world forever.

But then I feel a painful throb within my chest…

And I begin to feel sick and disgusted with myself.

I feel so tainted and abhorrent.

How did my heart become so hateful and cruel?

Just when the pain becomes unbearable…

Just when I'm about to fall off the edge into darkness and lose all hope…

You pull me back into the warm comfort of your arms.

My tainted heart suddenly feels pure again…

And new tears of relief begin to spring forth from my eyes.

The pain finally dissipates into thin air, as if it were never there.

I stagger for breath as my tears begin to choke me…

Trying to tell you that I'm sorry…

When you tenderly put your finger to my lips.

Nothing needs to be said…you understand.

You kiss me on the forehead and tell me everything will be all right.

I won't have to feel the pain anymore.

You pull me closer and hug me tight.

Vowing that you'll never let me feel alone again.

I finally feel at peace…

Knowing what I wanted to know for so long.

Knowing that my soul has been saved from the darkness …

By your love
