Morning's new light
Breaks through the night
Illuminating my soul
Making me whole

Warming my heart
Mending each part
Soothing the pain
Building once again

Tears now dried
Many of them cried
To reach this point
Things out of joint

Dawn is here
Erasing my fear
Maybe on this day
I'll find my way

Beautiful. I don't know how this one was slipping by, but it deserves some attention.

Dawn is here
Erasing my fear
Maybe on this day
I'll find my way......

With each dawns light
fear fades with night,
skies turn to blue
as life surrounds you....


Beautiful way to show the newness
that each new day brings LW.
Well done.  *s*



On the wings of words our spirits fly, and our souls are free.

Today Is The Day
SO Many Call
To You
Themselves

Gods Indecipherable
Only Colloquiollolised Way
Who could find an Accent

SoulReaching SoulKeeping
The HighWire Act In FearsGlory
Defeating Simultaneously NoneANDAll

Enough
The Stanzas ARE
Misunderstood

Why Oh Why
Should They Be Different
From The Words

All Are In All
The Words
Embrace All Unhearing Unheralded Unheard

Words SpeakScreamm ALL



And The Days
That They Linger
They Are Nothing
To You At All
Yet You Remain

And The Song That Is Soul It Reaches Defiant Giving It In And Give
