Purple Waves

Where will this lead us?
It is something 
unknown to us
    Yet it is
something we must 
    learn from
Deepening shadows 
     cover your face
Why not let yourself go?
    Why not dance upon 
the waters?
 we do not 
see much we can depend on
   But yes - it it 
      our dream 
    Yes, we have 
tasted the dawn
    and the only 
way we can 
    realize this 
   is through persistence, 
love, and  a small portion of luck
