Sophia Alexopoulos Poems

I balance on the edge of reason
At the brink of the abyss
Struggling to keep from falling
Holding on to nothingness
...

Perfect, pretty picture
a doll on display
perched on a pedestal
day after day
...

Treading in a sea of sorrow
Drowning in a pool of tears
Chained and imprisoned
By my dark, unyielding fears
...

The gates are standing open
On the eve of my despair
A fierce wind swirls around me
Dancing in my hair
...
