Eternal Dawn

I am familiar with the power of the night,

With the darkness that swallows me whole.

With the enemies, once real, now ghosts,

Yet just as real, if not stronger than before.

The blackness ushers me to the torture chambers,

To re-live the bloody nightmares.

With fingers wrapped around my throat.

When, oh darkness, will you release my soul?

There sleeps a babe in the room adjacent,

Under the light of a new covenant,

One of freedom and beauty,

Where starlight waltzes in the reflection of the moon.

And glistening unicorns prance in the moonbeams.

Let the haunting of the old oath die.

With new life, deliver us from the demons.

Break the generational chains, so that the light can shine again.

There is a power greater than the darkness,

The power that illuminates the night with the reflection of the sun,

Her face lifts to mirror the glory of the day,

And the impossible marriage ceremony is performed.

Light will conquer with love.

The eternal dawn arises.
