Three minutes to dawn
Awakening again amidst anxiety's allusions
to a day long gone and a tomorrow yet unseen
Becoming bereavement beckons bluntly
to accept the phantom uncertainty of what soon will have been
Carefully catching, cautiously continuing, contemptuously corroding
as eyes remain closed, but see from within
Daring defiance, detesting doubts, disproving deception
as braving the darkness, determined to win
Three minutes to dawn
to a day long gone and a tomorrow yet unseen
Becoming bereavement beckons bluntly
to accept the phantom uncertainty of what soon will have been
Carefully catching, cautiously continuing, contemptuously corroding
as eyes remain closed, but see from within
Daring defiance, detesting doubts, disproving deception
as braving the darkness, determined to win
Three minutes to dawn
