Awakening

A new beginning, once more born Starting life, a coming dawn Inside a cocoon, life begins Able to see, such precious things

Deep within, awakening mind Seeing light, no longer blind Out of the abyss, darkened night Behold the beauty, a wondrous sight

Horizons afar, see the sun descend Life in the past, now at an end Rays of sunshine, in distant skies Outstretched arms, open eyes

Birth of a future, being together Be it sunshine, or stormy weather Going forth, leave the past behind Hearts as one, true love we'll find

Never returning, to days gone by Together we'll laugh, sometimes cry In life's struggle, as one we'll stand Into the future, hand in hand

Strong emotions, a warmth inside Love so great, it cannot hide Longing to cherish, this wonderful life With the one I love, my dearest wife
