I Sit upon the Brink

by Chole Chanem

I sit upon the brink of life
I dare not be too bold
But ere I take the plunge
The future I will hold

The future is a murky place
With many dangers wrought
It is a place where we must go
Our souls to be sold and bought

But with each danger comes opportunity
With each test a hope
But we must be prepared
To always be able to cope

So prepare for the future
To be all that you can be
Then by your guiding light
The golden hope you'll see
