Dawn's Mysteries

Bright Dawn
Our eyes open
               and face the mystery
A pleasent dream
interrupted by
             a firey orb
   We have to make 
         the most
of what we are given
A solid wall of time blocks our escape
        impossible to break 
through
                or climb over
Take solace 
                 in your hopes, wishes, dreams
your life is in your hands
         thousands upon thousands of other 
eyes are also open
       Make the most of it
Let yourself join
        with the vast population of
the planet
    Feel your way towards 
earthly redemption
     Taste the new reality
                  before it flys
from your fingertips
      before it too, flies away
             like a butterfly
Into the dark woods
