Awakening
My eyes have seen much
Many places have I traveled
Once there was wonder found
But motivation was required
My eyes have seen much
But my soul had yet to awaken
Now the skies hold a new color
The stars seem deeper than before
No day seems long enough
And the scents are without compare
Simple touch brings joy
Sounds are heightened
Music holds new meaning
And the Sun is welcomed in the Dawn
My importance is now understood
My purpose is defined
All makes sense
Yet nothing seems clear
Confusion could despair me
But joy overwhelms
Exhaustion could bring anger
Simplicity dismisses the thought
A Parent have I become
With a gift of child held in my arms
Unprepared and frightened
But never discouraged
My eyes have seen much
But no wonder equals my current view
Looking down into the face of truth
I have found my purpose
