Dawn Against Trauma

Flashes of traumas I can’t control

Get stuck like a skip in a song on a scratched record

Scars I can’t remove from my mind

Replaying without my permission

Some think you can cure this,

It is called remission,

Remission is not a cure

Relapses still occur

You have no say or choice

You pray, you persist, you fight, you scream,

When all you need is a reassuring compassion,

A silly distraction, a bit of fun, a moment’s inspiration of something new,

A simple hug,

Support is sometimes a distant long lost friend,

But what is lost is found

You put out gratitude

Fight positively, but embrace emotion

Try not to repress and pray to heal

Is love a cure for the uncureable?

Faith is a flexible long lasting glue

I pray, anyone who understands

Finds the comfort they need

In a good solid friend

Brighter joyful tomorrows do exist,

And nightmares must fade like shadows in the light

Shine bright! For Now is Dawn!
