Dawn

if there was such a thing as a time machine.

I would take it right back to here.

And on this fateful morning years ago

I would have taken my steps;

Towards the suns golden rays,

Eight times I would go that direction.

Because the route I took that day;

Has taken me to a place,

No one would want to go.

Not by any choice made, or conscious decision;

Sometimes fate decides your destiny for you,

And no one does not like;

Losing the right to self determination;

For others actions; tied by blood to an innocent,

Let my life see the light of day once more.

And chase this darkness away.
