Dawn, dreams to remember,
Perchance pain to forget?
Hearts may soar with desire,
Torment continues yet.
Epoch now past,
What was is no longer.
Your soul defiled,
Fashioned you stronger.
Nightmares endured,
In life and slumber,
Created a spirit,
With voice of thunder.
Arise sweet man,
Face new dawning,
Cast off yesterday,
Love now spawning.
The Maelstrom is you,
A challenge to tomorrow,
Wisdom your sword,
Defeating all sorrow.
So, stand to the fore
With weapons of devotion,
Prepared to defeat,
Destructive emotion.
Walk, your head high,
Romancing the clouds,
Enemies now memories,
Encased in rough shrouds.
