In the Name of Dawn

Crack of light before dawn
Bright light of hope
Traveling in sight and in feel
Outrunning sound

Bone chilling beginning
Moon take that back seat
Drag, drag my heels back
Reluctantly

Not the first morning
Not close to last
Change feels colder
Taking cautious steps back

Sunlight always comes
Considering the day
Prideful moonlight
Fades sheepishly away

Decisively run
Despite the black ground
Sprint quick in darkness
Eyes heaven bound
