The edge

I stood at the very edge of my sorrow.
I held it firm in both hands.
It slipped through my fingers
mixed with air,wind,fire and water.
The earth moved beneath my feet.
Emotions such a fickle thing.
Grasping for the joy, falling and failing
softness of the heart, chilling, hardening to stone.
Hope floats, hanging near the edge
wing and a prayer, all will be fine
then its dust, dust in the wind
and raindrops hanging on the pines
slipping off the edge, deep into the night.
