Edges

by Mr. David R. Dorrycott

There is always time

at least, they say that

where books stand tall

where iron rules

where one god crushes all

but they never stood here

on the edge

where dark

and light

kiss

Choices

they say

There are always choices

Life is never White

Or Black

But they never stood here

on the edge

where dark

and light

touch

Here there is no time

There are only two choices

for Grey has gone

back to the lands

where bottles tinkle

and elixirs mix

Here is only white

and black

here where the worlds heart beats

And they never stood here

for they never believed

and not believing

they could never find

that stone strewed path

we crossed so many ages ago

or was it seconds?

But they will never stand here

on the edge

where dark

and light

beat as one

to know the truth
