THE AWAKENING

61 17 23
                                    

When I am lagged behind,

By despair and its kind,


And frustration knocks at my door;


When try as I might,

I cannot let go of fright,


And all I can do is look down at the floor;


I close my eyes,

And heave in a deep sigh,


And then i feel the rise -

Of a spirit in me,


Undaunted, unmoved, 

Burning with passion and desire,


Waiting to see,


The dawn of a new day,

As moments pass by,


I can feel it make its way,


Through the clutter in my mind,


Freeing itself slowly


From the cords and thoughts that bind

It in me.


It is then that I realize,


This spirit,


Free it was, is and will be,


It just waits for the perfect melody.


So all I need to do is keep my calm,

And write, my way, my life's-story.
