Dawn

In the morning, 6 o'clock
Minutes before dawn
I am waking
I am sleeping
Waking from my sleep

Though how to wake I know
To live I know not
To make the steps I take
Steps of faith
The words I speak
Words of peace

Living without goals
Living without hope
Waiting for the light
Waiting for the dawn
Glimpses of light will show
However, hope might not
