Awakening in the early hour
My joy is refreshed, no need to sleep longer
My path is changed, a new journey begins
My past is whisked away with yesterdays wind

Much older now, more wiser as well
as time itself took me through trials of hell
but hell cannot hold to a will that is strong
and strengthened more as time goes on

My life was emptied of everything gained
taken by greed and nothing remained
My heart and soul shattered by foolish trust
nothing was left but the withering dust

Yet in the dust came a glimmer of light
that shone through the darkness of my long lonely plight
The warmth of the light that held on to life
that held on to hope as I slept through the the night

The dew from a dawning that mixed in the dust
and reformed who I am from what I once was
my weakened spirit became quenched of it's thirst
to find a purpose for my life to rebirth

New wisdom, new honor, my life became new
My will to trust and to love slowly grew
The dew from the dawning, though clouded with mist
awakened my senses, my will to exist

This morning awakes me with joy of new life
and the mist of the dew has diminished my strife
Was nothing I did or nothing I could do
as it all came unclouded, the dawning was you.

To my sweet May, thank you.
