Today

Beginning each day
Pinning hope
from the sun
to shine on my way
I set forth to live ..
Moving closer
to the stars
by night
The ones
that shine
alongside the moon
Visibly apparent
just like in my dreams
Invisible yet Glittering
My sky's distant
yet my hopes
aren't fluttering

On the distant anvil
I see
the dawn of yesterday
setting,
settling in
Beside me I see
A spade of narratives
Under
A shade of hands
Pieces of broken mirror
interwoven
with the trailing sands ..

I count no more
my wasted tears
They left no echo
of their fall ..
I mourn no more
my lonesome
years
This blessed hour
atones for all
I fear not
all that
Time or fate
May bring to burden
the heart or brow ..

The vision thats bare
the starkness
repudiated
in the storm
The one within
and all that's akin
Of the few hopes
that crashed
And of agony and disdain
that lashed
To take off the
remnants
that in the end
kept me all too sane ..

No sooner did the old hope
drop to the ground
Than
A new one
straight to the
selfsame mark ..

I shape me
And another today not afar ..
