New horizon
For a long time
I was living without living
Hiding within myself
In the world I was dreaming
But we can’t dream forever
That’s something I forgot
Something I dismissed
While I was deep in my thoughts
And then I woke up
For first time in a while
I got free from the dreams
Where I was in exile
And I cannot describe
The feeling of awakening
The feeling of life
Is breathtaking
And with each breath
I can feel my body responding
I can feel life within me
I can feel my heart pounding
The world around me
Feels more alive than before
It feels bigger than I remember
And I can’t ask for more
The colours that were washed
Are now vibrant and brighter
The air that was oppressive
Now feels lighter
The nights that were dark
Where emptiness felt eternal
Are now filled with stars
And that feels normal
The moonlight that was ominous
That was dark and frightening
Is now bright and warm
And that’s exciting
This is the new horizon
That I see with my eyes
That I feel with my body
Since I arise
