DAWN RISEN ANEW

when I see her face I’m reminded of spring
the season of fresh beginnings and new life it brings

my fall from grace has hit me to the core
but when I see her smile I want to give it a try once more

i’ve been told over again the world hasn’t come to an end
it has now felt that way because in her is a good friend

when I see leaves grow back on the barren trees
i’ll always remember you Katie for you’ve given me the keys

while I now may not be in the best of plights
seeing your smile is reason for the demons I must fight

to make a change for good, rise up from the dead
live life anew, for my soul’s been nourished, its been fed
