I am standing at the edge of Never, Looking beyond, looking across , the endless expanse of the Immortal Sea. I take a step forward… Testing ,hoping, wishing, praying I look down To see the black waters churning, Grinding, Crushing, Eternal waves. I look up only to be blinded by heavens face. I try to jump I bend my knees But fall down in defeat instead. I ventured out to take a leap of faith, But was pushed down by my own device instead. I get up, dust off the rubble, And venture out a little further again… I am standing at the edge of Never And with every two steps forward I’m pushed down by three instead! The face of heaven scorches on; And in the horizon of that All Encompassing Sea, I see a lone bird fly. So free, so powerful, so magnificent that beast, …All too soon it passes from view…. I look ahead And standing on that Edge of Never I say, Destiny be ****** I write My story I am Emperor, I am Slave I am Ruler, Master and Subordinate I am the Dominant and the Submissive I am pleasure and I am Pain Who is Faith?! Who is Kismet? I run my show, I decide the Game. All I want, All I seek is Within ME I am standing at the edge of Never And I take this leap of faith And as I pummel into those Eternal depths I know, the oceans but a pond and the storms just a breeze. I know all ‘s in my power and well within my reach. I drift on those waters forever free My strengths, weaknesses, flaws and virtues Are not washed by those treacherous waves. Oh my friends! the water just cleanses; purges my soul, Glorifies my victory and showcases my loss. I stood at the Edge of Never And now I float in the Sea of Life I’ll get out and go back  to the cliff again, Take that leap once-more…!

The Edge Of Never
I am standing at the edge of Never, Looking beyond, looking across , the endless expanse of the Immortal Sea. I take a step forward… Testing ,hoping, wishing, praying I look down To see the black waters churning, Grinding, Crushing, Eternal waves. I look up only to be blinded by heavens face. I try to jump I bend my knees But fall down in defeat instead. I ventured out to take a leap of faith, But was pushed down by my own device instead. I get up, dust off the rubble, And venture out a little further again… I am standing at the edge of Never And with every two steps forward I’m pushed down by three instead! The face of heaven scorches on; And in the horizon of that All Encompassing Sea, I see a lone bird fly. So free, so powerful, so magnificent that beast, …All too soon it passes from view…. I look ahead And standing on that Edge of Never I say, Destiny be ****** I write My story I am Emperor, I am Slave I am Ruler, Master and Subordinate I am the Dominant and the Submissive I am pleasure and I am Pain Who is Faith?! Who is Kismet? I run my show, I decide the Game. All I want, All I seek is Within ME I am standing at the edge of Never And I take this leap of faith And as I pummel into those Eternal depths I know, the oceans but a pond and the storms just a breeze. I know all ‘s in my power and well within my reach. I drift on those waters forever free My strengths, weaknesses, flaws and virtues Are not washed by those treacherous waves. Oh my friends! the water just cleanses; purges my soul, Glorifies my victory and showcases my loss. I stood at the Edge of Never And now I float in the Sea of Life I’ll get out and go back  to the cliff again, Take that leap once-more…!
