A Soul Awakened

There's moonlight swirling into the night;
keeping the distant horizon in sight.

Under the guidance of glittering dreams
life can prove happier than it seems.

As one awakens their soul at dawn
they realize their sorrows are gone.

They've packed up their troubles into the past
and come to find their bliss at last.

Life can be poetry in motion
when love is built on pure devotion.

The winds of time die down at last
though it seems they roll on by too fast.

Yet if  you've awakened your soul to love
the heavens beckon you from above.

The skies embrace you and rejoice;
how you carry on now's your choice.
