Morning Dew As points of light a glimmer trapped in sparkling beads of dew Fall slowly down my window they create a clearer view Revealing my reflection in a frozen gaze of time These teardrops of a new day trickling down along with mine This melted condensation which now weeps onto my sill Epitomize the heartache of a life so unfulfilled A life sans all tomorrows but for memories of pain A past so omnipresent, there is no chance of escape I’ve wallowed in the shadows of this sorrow evermore I’ve hid from every truth that I no longer can ignore I’m looking for an answer I’m not sure I want to hear To see what is invisible is vision that I fear The sun is gently creeping, through this hazy twist of lines Sparkling through the trails that these drips have left behind These sunbeams now upon me I can rid this somber plight The darkness ofdejection now awash in brilliant light Bringing forth a new beginning filled with strength and hope A brightly lit commencement giving me the will to cope The chance of opportunity, we often are denied Is sometimes right before us if we open up our eyes So long my friend of darkness I have no more tears to cry The sun is slowly rising, and on this day, so will I Richy |

Richy As I read this it was like listening to music that slowly got louder...and the end was so powerful and full of hope, yes, just like music. Each minute is a new beginning. Hug! |

I’ve wallowed in the shadows of this sorrow evermore I’ve hid from every truth that I no longer can ignore I’m looking for an answer I’m not sure I want to hear To see what is invisible is vision that I fear my favorite 2 verses...I am looking for a answer too, but am afraid to hear it *s M |
