A New Day

The Sun will rise again

When darkness can’t get any darker

Shadows will retreat

When night has filled the cup of time

When pearls start to glow

When morning dewdrops glister

When the wind waves the blade of grass

The Sun will rise again

When eagles have descended by my side

When I no longer need to flee

When mountain has accepted me, I will stay

And rest for a while

This is the moment

I have always feared

Afraid of an ending night

Afraid of a closing road

This is how it feels to die

On a most beautiful day

When the clouds so white and light

Sail across the sky.
