We dodge and weave
Through the torrent of the storm
Running from fear
Buzy so as not to disappear
But if we take a moment
If we slow down our pace
We will become greater than our instincts
We will guide our minds
We will understand
The only way out is through
We are in this together
The losses, the heartbreaks
We watch as some become savage
We watch as others fade away
Darkness can be consuming
It is for this reason
We must defy timidity
And come face to face with reality
Things are not the same
They have been permanently altered
The cause of this, however sinister
It shall not be in my thoughts now
But rather, as I watch the world crash
My focus is finding moments
Of pure joy in nature and
In those I love
To see the world with a higher lens
Not as those who dwell upon the ground
But high above it all
A sunrise greets me to fill me with hope
After the darkness
Always comes the light
So I embrace the gift of color and light
I breathe in and expand my heart
The day will bring enough trouble
I will guard my mind
Protect it like a lioness
It must be a safe place
The media, the words, the videos
Too much for us lovers of peace
But we must press on
It’s always darkest before dawn
Embrace hope, it can still be found
