Dim light in the vicinity
Aura of hope engulfs me
At last am rescued
Free of my pain
Relieved of my fear
I shut it all out
The pitch darkness
cowardice and
self esteem that's no more
concealing my inner strength.
I let the beast rob me
without a fight
I transform into his door-mat
Suffer memory lapse
For my worth
cease to cross my mind
Day breaks; sun shines
Butin my world:
whips of wind and rain
sting my skin
chilled bones and numb feet
never let me make steps
Crouched in my corner
I shut my eyes
And I sail
Far away...
Back to my reverie
Where freedom is a norm
independence my trait
and smiles my daily attire
scowling is a dream
so far just like the present
that i don't want to awaken
