The edge of life,

the edge of hope,

the edge of reason,

the edge of love.

So tightly I grip

not looking down

testing boundaries

after the shove.

The edge of sanity,

the edge of safety,

the edge of sadness,

the edge of joy.

Treading carefully

I start to tremble

the mind of a man

no longer a boy.

The edge of terror,

the edge of fear,

the edge of doubt,

the edge of faith.

Arising from comfort

the warrior awakens

new boundaries discovered

stepping up to the plate.

The edge of anxiety,

the edge of poverty,

the edge of sickness,

the edge of truth.

Character growing

confidence building

now a survivor

from the tragedy of youth.

The edge of depression,

the edge of darkness,

the edge of terror

the edge of light.

Courage awakened

enlightened and ready

from the edge

I’ve learned to fight.
