TITLE: DARKNESS BEFORE DAWN

One of my earlier pieces, before I matured in my writing.
LIFE HAS A WAY
OF BLINDING US TO THE DAY
THAT IS ALL AROUND US

THERE IS POVERTY AND DESPAIR
HUNGER AND HATRED IN THE AIR
THAT SURROUNDS US

AS WE LIVE AND BREATHE
WE RECEIVE AND PERCEIVE
MANY THINGS THAT DOWN US

BUT INSENSITIVITY
INDIGNITIES AND INHUMANITY
DOESN'T HAVE TO BECOME
A PART OF US

IF WE WOULD TAKE THE TIME
TO LOOK BEYOND OUR MINDS
TO LOOK BEYOND
THE DARKNESS INTO THE DAWN

THERE WE WOULD FIND
OUR JOY, OUR HAPPINESS
OUR PEACE OF MIND
