Dawn of Tomorrow

A surging gust of changing wind 
has pushed me down a path unknown. 
Engaging dreams I won't rescind 
will place me at my lover's throne. 

She'll gently brush her noble hand 
across my soft but weary brow. 
Her tenderness will take command 
and to her velvet touch I'll bow. 

My fire will circumvent her heart, 
then cauterize the gaping hole; 
a tear that ripped her realm apart 
and left a chasm in her soul. 

Two kindred flames ignite in dance, 
which sparks a royal duet's tune. 
For this hurting queen a second chance 
to waltz beneath the autumn moon. 

With newfound faith, my hopes she'll take 
and forge a castle 'round our dream. 
Emotions, dead, are now awake 
to love that grows and reigns supreme
