Danger Zone

Suzanne Mondoux · 24 April 2020

It was the night I saw it all The stars where bright and moon no where to be seen It was not how I had imagined it I was in the danger zone, in the heart of the storm It was exquisite So slow my thoughts My heart stop beating and my breath frozen I was in the deep end of the most tragic part of my life I was in the danger zone of my own storm So close I came to missing it So close I came to never knowing I could be in the danger zone To have missed such an exquisite moment That would have been a tragedy I fell on my knees and thank God for this moment I was all but absent of my own life There was no point in crying It was but a moment of bliss A moment of awakening So graceful this pitfall into the danger zone I could not turn away Instead I sought the silver lining In that moment before me I saw my own dress rehearsal It was a glorious moment into the danger zone I sing my own praise Such a fine stage I stepped out of my grave into the light There I was in the danger zone showing me the way Beautiful and tender I found my way So exquisite this momentous occasion to fall so deep in the danger zone
