From the Edge...Young Poets In Pain
In their dark and sunless
caverns,
in their rooms
so all alone,
Help them light
the dimmest lanterns
let them know
a friend is home.
You were young
and you remember
how it was
when all was lost,
they don't know that
by December
many rivers
will be crossed
They don't have a map
to guide them
there's no compass
for their track
we must hold them
and confide them
till they find
a pathway
back..
