I was standing in the cold,
Fog and mist drizzling on,
Waiting for that morning dew,
To make my dreams come true,

I was standing in the dark night,
Darkness setting in my mind,
Waiting for that ray of sunshine,
To light up my black, turn everything bright,

I was sitting with the sadness,
Of my heart, head in hand,
Waiting for a moment of joy,
To fill with hope all my life,

Wait was over, nothing came,
I shattered, broke down,
Never felt the same,
Of unknown and known, fear, set in,

I looked up and found,
I could feel a drop of dew,
I could see in the dark,
I could smile on my own,

The fear vanished,
The broken, mended,
I didn't feel shattered anymore,
Unknown became a new beginning,

I felt whole, I felt light,
I felt the breath go in,
And fill the hollow of my chest,
I didn't need anymore rest,

I walked through the dark,
I walked through the night,
I was sad no more,
I held my head high,

The realisation,
Of self brought me,
Things I was looking for everywhere,
Were inside of me all this time.
