He wakes up exhausted,
feels the same while in bed.
His world is distorted,
numbness transforms to dread.
His moves are all stagnant
within his encaged thoughts,
dull memory fragments
haunt false tales he once bought.
Disguising his sad tears,
wearing a broken smile,
his attempts carry fears
often seen as hostile.
Raindrops produce music
that cascade on his head,
bringing hopes that may stick
and eventually spread.
Staring up at the sky
till a rainbow appears.
Aspirations run high
as his dusty mind clears.
An empowering choice
help him gain some control.
Finding ways to rejoice
swiftly brightens his soul.
