THIS DAY


      A thousand days have passed
      A slow walk under the stars
      Watching as eternal night
      Continues to be my world

      The mystery of thoughts surpassed
      Bringing circles into light
      Pondering the past in a fleeting moment
      Looking to times to come

      What will be when the sun rises
      Once again through the mist
      Fog creeps as fingers
      Through mountain canyons

      Has the dream vanished into reality
      Finally ending what could never be
      A glance into the horizon
      Then the knowing has become ours
