Precipice

You’re on the precipice of something looming

You feel as if there’s buzzing in the air

But you cannot tell what the next turn will be

If only you could see more clearly and be more aware.

Whatever pathway the road may take for you

You’re sure that someday life will tell

The secrets that are meant for you to know

The longings in your heart you feel all too well.

Dreams and visions flood your mind

While restlessness stirs the air all around

You know that whatever may come to you

That peace and surety of well-being will abound.

There is a confidence in your step and breath

Life was meant for you to know in every measure

Your senses are too keen to always understand

This life is an unknown, well-kept treasure.

If only your mind and soul would merge

So you would know what your heart doth say

Then each night you would sleep with wild abandon

Knowing each day would afford a glimpse of the way.
