• Walking amid a bed of roses
    Stepping on the field of thorns
    No pain beyond that of mental
    Emotional, no physical
    Why run closer to the ledge?

    Times change
    Yet stay the same
    Mother Earth still spins
    And the clouds still rain
    Why run closer to the ledge?

    As the grass runs out
    It gives way to rock
    The ledge closer now
    Coming into view
    Why did he run closer to the ledge?

    Nothing but air
    No solid ground
    Mother Earth still spins
    And clouds still rain
    But that one person
    Will never walk again.
