Dawn

[b_marie23]

It's all so surreal,
Ah! I can feel!
My chest is swelling,
Pleasure my mind starts melding,
No doubt foretelling,
The paradise fate has in store for me.

Blood and pressure rise,
Discomfort I despise,
That need to control
Devoured my very soul,
I though myself bold,
Now a cringing shadow is all I see.

Nervousness and girlish wonder,
That puppet life torn asunder,
Dare I plunge ahead?
Overcome this rising dread?
It's just in my head?
NO! It is real, of my shackles I am free.
