Beginning out of chaos
  from my genesis or start
I was shackled by discomforting
  confusion of the Heart
Pushed out to the outside
  had me clutching to the ledge
It took me many years 'til
  I was up beyond the edge

Pinning Heart to sleeve
  attracted moths unto the flame
spinning round like raptors
  on this debilitated game
Eyes locked upon the target...
  something hiding in the hedge
But I moved and out-manuevered
  when I went up beyond the edge!

     Pieces clicking into place
      within the places well unknown
     Grasping who I am within
      that undeveloped zone
     I swore I would continue
      It became my solomn pledge
     that with every breath I'd take
      I would go up beyond the edge

Bridges sought were burning
  over chasms of discord
My world was overturning
  while I called unto the Lord
Faith was wearing thin
  as I longed the pain to sledge
But He was drawing ever near
  till He appeared before the edge


Ending all the turmoil
  takes much more than can be known
Befriending Higher Power's
  sending wings made to be flown
To keep the portals open
  sometimes takes a sacred wedge
to fly through all the chaos...

                  ...and soar up beyond the edge
