The Dawn

I was waiting for the dawn,

the sunshine, the rainbows....

and waiting for the night to end....

Wasnt crying or whining.....

Just standing tall, trying not to bend...

I was strong... have always been....

And thats what I was then....

"This would pass and light will shine..

and the world will accept you again.."

I was telling myself, while standing in the cold

dark night, over and over again....

And then it suddenly struck me,

What am I waiting for?

When i have the power within me..

Standing is what i have been doing..

and doing it all wrong..

and the night is growing

ever more strong....

No, the dawn will not come..

No, the night will not end...

and this will not pass..

It will stay as it is...

Until you know that you are the sun..

and you have to shine...

and burn yourself..

To bring on the light...

The world will love you

and want you....

When.............

it doesnt really matter for you again..

But some are destined to bathe in the light

and some are destined to burn and give out light...

But irony is that both are unhappy...

and want to switch places again........

If only they would know.....

What they have is the best..

and they dont have to look

anywhere else...

But such is life...

and so is destiny..

unpredictable and unsatisfying in the end..............
