Palindrome

Dry.
I am a cracked painting, brushed with grief.
Between my eyes there's a frown.
My retinas feel ready to crack open.
What have I done?
What have I seen?
There's nowhere left to lean
And no strength left to run.
At the edge of the crevasse, I tossed every rope in.
And with no direction left but down,
To fall would be relief.
Cry.
