Sense Sonnet - Acher

 I Stand at the Edge

At the edge of the known I be,

Of my behavior in the past.

Standing in the moment is me,

As the future's unknown is cast.

I know I've been both wrong and right,

Balancing both these in my mind,

Accepting as in day and night,

The many differences I find.

And yes it took me quite a while

To sort through findings for my task,

Draw hope and courage from each pile,

And stand here now prepared to ask.

Some helplessness is felt in thought,

Will I be forgiven or not?
