Waking Up

Waking up to a new morning -

To a morning of rut,

A rut of sinking emotions

To emotions of hope and despair,

Despair of a ruffled mind

To a mind that still hopes,

Hopes for a better tomorrow

To a tomorrow of excitement

Excitement of living a dream

To a dream that grows to be real

Real by choice or by fate

To a fate that may be our chance

A chance of having you

To having a healthy you

You, whom we so much love

And to that love we all give in.
