The View From Here steel breathes under my vans a crane holds me over ten stories of quiet it's the night sky twinkling above the celebration is below the city counts down without counting me no one knows i am even here no one know if i go what if i slip and fall? I ask the dark, "what comes after the noise?" the wind answers by not answering the view from here is... ...a concrete sidewalk If you need help, or you are struggling you are not alone. There is hope, and there is help!
