Awakening
Awakening
I haven’t written poetry for 18 years.
Today I wrote a poem.
Feelings welled up inside me that I
had forgotten were there.
Water is flowing again in the channel
and life is stirring.
Darkness is lifting, lifting finally and
the sun is blinding.
I have awoken and my eyes are
watering at the sight.
I think I can make out the shape of it.
The shape is you.

"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end, for they do so with the approval of their own conscience." – C. S. Lewis
