The Dawning Light

2006-07 Poems

Awake to the quiet breeze.

The smiling sun,

Shining through the shades.



The warm haze,

Lightly grazes my face.

Lost in the warm embrace.



Getting lost in the morning coffee,

Watch the crème swirl in the dark abyss.

Ever so slowly changing to white.



Another day,

Another cup.



Awakening to new thoughts,

Endless possibilities.

Creativity.



Words flow,

Words rhyme.



Music speaks,

The rhythm in tune to a soul.



The strength of their words,

The intricacies of life,

Explained in waves upon the air.



The quite pulse,

The hum,

The buzz from the speakers,

Lightly tapping the gentle breeze.

Lightly tapping me.



Here I am,

Once more for the entire world to see,



Here I am,

Once more looking for a friend,

Once more looking for a new start.

Looking to reinvent the old image.



Looking for a way to survive,

Looking for a boy.



Yet there is no rush,

When you are enjoying each day,

When the sunrise is a greeting,

Like nothing else in the world.



Each day brings something new,

Each golden ray,

Erases a dark chapter of the past.



The shadows will forever remain,

They still haunt me at night.

But I’ll fight with all my might,

To trust the strength I never believed I had.



A little more confident,

A little more impressive,

A little skinnier,

A little better looking,

A little more like I always wanted to be.



Slowly but surely it will come true,

Slowly get better,

Confidence will slowly rise,

I'll be the dream I've had inside.



Each day is another step closer.

The dawning light becomes the alarm clock,

The coffee becomes the fuel.



Get lost in another cup,

Another day,

Another boy,

Get lost in all the light.
