In the dark
Alone
Emptiness
Subsides
Energy
Restores
Soul
Renews
Before
Sunrise
I will walk tall
Another day
Because I run
Predawn

On this day,
Run to honor those whose feet no longer touch the earth,
And now run with angels.

Floating in a sea of strangers past and present
No one notices as I wander by
A jolt, a sudden sound
All eyes upon me as I open my own
***
I shuffle off to rinse away the residue of night
Break my fast with bread
I slip into my wings
And through the door
***
The night is fighting the dawn
Vainly resisting the inevitable
As the sun’s rays brush my skin
My wings are energized
***
I lose a mile and then some
Lost in the symphony of daybreak
Alone but happy
Free but wanting to share
***
The limbs burn
But this is easy
The burdens of the day await
For now, I am free
