Edge Of Thorns

EDGE Of THORNS

An offering of reasons

We put them all in play

A covering of treasons

That one by one we let slip away



A solitary dancer

So lost upon her stage



I have seen you on the edge of dawn

Felt you there before you were born

Balanced your dreams upon the ends of thorns

But I don’t think about you anymore



A study made from winter

Of summers long ago

And dreams that used to glitter

Safely now hidden under snow



And so we end the chapter

And let the stage lights fade



I have seen you on the edge of dawn 

Felt you here before you were born

Balanced your dreams upon the ends of thorns

But I don’t think about you any more
