Looking For a Future

When the sun rises, and the birds call
Another day dawns in the battle trenches
Working on being the best version of me
Releasing baggage that I’ve been dragging along
Anchored with a drilled bolt into the ground
In moments when truths became painfully realized
Digging deeper stumbling blocks in human trust
Scratch marks from the desperate attempts to climb
Escape the pit of misery, or to dig my way out
Find the beautiful rising light of hope and happiness
That might suggest the opportunity to leave it behind
In favour of peace and calm as a new normal
Knowing the glorious support that the Universe offers
To believe that it will always be there for me
And all that I have to do is ask and have faith
Piece together the shattered splinters of belief
Take a chance once again in great possibility
