Description
‘On the brink of despair
Horizons are dull
Fear clinch the air
Thunder the lull
The path laid before
Uncertain as none
The distance the shore
Breached at the core
Together as one
We stand on the brink
Encounter despair
On route to repair
Rise to the challenge
I ask you today
Defeating this chalice
We’ll do in our sway’
