My Frontiers

I fought triumphing tears
As my grief swallowed me up
For your gentle goodnight
Left me shaken and broken

So I wandered to the end of my heart's piers
And struggled to, with reality, sup
By the light of twilight
Still my tears came like a foundation...

Stay my fears in your grave
While I sleep in my dream's cradle
Where my favourite fantasy lives
Take with you, woe's tears

As sorrow's tears engrave
A trail of varnished grace upon God's easel
Bear away the painful shivs
And let me walk to my frontiers...
