Almost

It’s almost time

to cast off the gloom

start a new chapter

in a life brand new

 

No more threats of uncertainty

done with the venom pool

spring is time to renew

 

Cast off dark shadows

cast away morose threats

rise up and grab the rope

hoisted there to pull you up

 

No time for excuses

the labor is full scale

worn and weary now

but we are free…

 

The first time

dared to defy a tyrant

wouldn’t settle

to be walked upon

 

so done with crazy…

 

The outside beckons

crippled as it is

the elements are harsh

but there is a glimmer ahead

 

promising sunlight

and fireflies

and skies

to embrace

the million stars previously unseen
