Perhaps

Between then and now
What once was and what could be
Endings, beginnings
Somber flows to brilliant
Shadows filtering away

Dawn breaks. Morning comes. Sun rises. Day begins. Warmth settles upon a heart once cold. Peace embraces a soul once tormented. Time applauds its patience. Faith weeps its knowing tears. And a lonesome breeze brings a song of hope. Love, still hesitant, still shy, waits beyond the horizon. Sun rises higher, higher, into an indigo sky. Perhaps there is reason to believe. Perhaps the moment has come. Perhaps Time and Love and Faith have spoken. Perhaps if I listen, I will hear their Truth. Perhaps.... just perhaps I have found what I was afraid to see, afraid to feel. And I smile with a joy I have not known in so very long.
