The Awakening
In the stillness of the night
Silence envelopes me
Loneliness creeps in
Blackness engulfs me

The mind spirals into nothingness
And the heart yearns for naught
Staring at the ceilling
As shadows dance across the bare walls

Huddled under the covers
As sleep eludes me
Seeking the comfort of my own warmth
Finding the hollows of my bed

It comes, finally
Drawing me in its derisive force
Into a land without thoughts
Into a land without worries

Dawn arrives with its usual splendour
As sunbeams kiss me
As new hopes fill me

In a cacophony of sounds
In a kaleidescope of colours
Like a moth emerges from its cocoon

Brand new day, brand new hope
Brand new wishes, brand new fulfilment
Life is tough
But it's not the 'why' that matters
It's the 'how' that counts...

========================================
Counting down to D-Day...and counting down to my comeback! It ain't that short..but it ain't that long either!!
It's been great knowing lotsa people care for you...
