Dawn

Dawn

We sing with lungs filled with words
Dance along to the notes we heard
Once upon a time now regained
Our spirits soar unrestrained

We have surpassed our limitations
With the aide of our secret libations
Drunk on the magic in our veins
Set free by the whimsy in our brains

So, come now and dance with me
As what was once the future becomes presently
The life we must now come to understand
Perhaps time itself will expand

With this expansion comes chance
A frightening thing at first glance
But if you were only to take a closer look
In the range of the whispering gasp you took

Your first steps, indeed, without even realizing
But now you must be more active in materializing
The beginning, the path, and the object you seek
This one true object born of the reality not bleak

The reality, instead of blinding light
A light of hope and promise, the will to fight
A very real battle across the emotional spectrum
A battle fit for deciding what you just might become

This is your new day
Your chance to stay
The amazing person you are
While adding to your repertoire

So I make of you this request
Find truth in your place among the rest
To whom my each new day belongs
To whom for which I write my songs
