Manifest Some Joy

Pulling from a dream,
They shake me wide awake,
I hear the clock chiming,
And daylight starts to break,
I’m finally seeing color,
Seeing hues that are brand new,
Setting my sight on the future,
Watch me see it through,
Why shouldn’t I laugh loudly,
Your shame is not my weight,
I can see the light now,
Now I control my fate.


Been a while! Maybe I still have some ideas up there!
