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 edge 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 there before you were born

Balanced your dreams upon the edge of thorns

But I don't think about you anymore
