There is a place


There is a place-

A cliff- 

That artists tend to go 

to explore; to create

And often throw themselves off of

People label it insanity

But wouldn't you, too, 

Allow yourself to trip and fall

If you saw, lingering in the darkest places,

The world as they do

Hi! My name is Elizabeth Davenport, and I'm a college student who loves all things language, no matter what language it is! I'm probably reading, writing, or dancing in the rain right now. I'm a featured poet, Aura, on diesandnoctis.com (go check them out: they're great!), and use the names E.D., Elie Dav, and Elizabeth Davenport when posting my own.
