Dawnrays

My gaze falls on the horizon A moment lost in contemplation And a yearning to overcome Strength that brews in my bones An imperishable embrace From the zephyrs abound I grasp the soil and with conviction I stand tall I feel the warmth of the dawns rays A newfound resolve ignites around me I find myself upon a different world One borne by providence and hope I clawed my way out of the void I’ll never… I’ll never return Stretched across all the bounds beyond I reminisce on that which I have become inside A mere shell or life reclaimed? I can’t be lost within I will find myself in it all Even if it kills me I grasp the soil and with conviction I stand tall I feel the warmth of the dawns rays A newfound resolve ignites around me Fighting for the air to breathe Above the surface of my grief This one dying dream Resurrected For all is what I make of it What once sought to confound me No one but I can will this Into existence A silence everlasting I took back all that was mine A once depleted and hollow shell Aiming to be restored A single solitary vow Was made to destroy my affliction A silence everlasting I defied fate and took back What was mine Tears overflowing… The triumph of a broken mind
