I’m aching to awaken what’s at stake
Yet the pains I’ve been unwilling to take
To hold the reins and rein in the sin
I long to win yet my wheels do spin
In a mediocre hand at poker
Yet life’s more than a game and I a joker
It’s time these rhymes evoke a power divine
Of a beautiful and benevolent kind
And where there is darkness, a light to shine
That soothes the soul and elevates the mind
So with these words I draw the line
For what’s been lost, I now shall find
