"What is our life but a succession of preludes to 
an unknown song whose first word is surrender."

          Quote by _Constance


My life has been one of high cliffs and deep dark pits,
oh, the map of my journey is unfathomable;
so often I have fallen from a high rocky precipice,
and with courage climbed from pits of sorrow and grief !

But, somehow on this doomed voyage I found strength, 
and have an inner courage to take a step within the unknown;
I can now face the puzzle of my strange life,
can explore unfamiliar and uncharted winding paths !

Oh, sure there are days I dangle from a lofty crag,
with a sheer drop into angry blue surging ocean waves;
and there are days I walk in beauty untold,
a foreign visitor in a mysterious forest on an adventure !

I have no fear of climbing vertical walls to find my bliss,
immense peril will not stop my quest for the purpose of my life;
I love finding the obscure-  the secrets in the beyond,
and enjoy the view from a mountain overhang !

"And though scars are the roadmap of my life,
I drink from the deep blue cup of sky."
