Dawn & Dusk

A pen for the hand
A story to tell
A bucket cast
Into an emotions well

A blade for the handle
For the truth to fight
To fend off the whispers
Encircling me in the night

A portal for the mind
My problems to transcend
To change my perspective
To know that they will end

A channel for the soul
To bring a sense of relief
To draw out the bitterness
That’s building up in me

A light in the dark
A salve to my pain
These are so much more
Than just words on a page
