Be the change

Fumbling, Stumbling

around in the dark.

Fighting, Igniting

flames from a spark.

Blinded, reminded

of the fear inside.

Turning, yearning

for a place to hide.

Soaking, choking

struggling to breathe

Hiding, abiding

my ghost won't leave.

Chasing, racing

I stagger away.

Breathless, restless

in the mud I lay.

Dreaming, gleaming

I escape the past.

Winning, new beginning,

I'm free at last.
