Shine

 

 

Hold the dream it picks you up from the sorrow

Here we are dancing in time trying to clutch

What’s left of today while grasping tomorrow

Love supposed to find us on the edge of time

Rescuing us from falling and crossing lines

It should be the promised panacea so fine

Yet dawn breaks from the onslaught of demon nights

Waking us to remnants of shattered crystal

Still In the fog don’t reach out for the pistol

Hold onto the dream it quiets the horror

 Calms the shrill mind promising an end of shadows

Hold the dream release the terror turn on the lights

Your moment will arrive to splendidly shine

You will leave an imprint you will be defined

and this sonnet, "splendidly shines"

even though a couple of the lines are a bit trippy in the reading...

the description is quite sound, and exhibits the feeling well.

I got chills when I read this
holding on to dreams is harder than letting them go
"Yet dawn breaks from the onslaught of demon nights
Waking us to remnants of shattered crystal"
Well penned

Empowering, uplifting and optimistic. Three word that I felt reading this. I like the line structure and the rhymes emphasised certain strong words. I can't fault this poem very much, I must admit. It does what I assume it is designed for. Thanks for sharing. :)
