Passing Rejuvenation

Image

At long last
I am
Restored piece by piece
Towering high above
The squalor from whence I came

If only for a while
May I treasure the fortune of peace
Swept away from peril
The grief I sullenly claim

At long last
I am
Spared from trivial wants
The hunger spans
For distant luxury
Lingering unknown, far, far too long

If only for a while
Builds and builds from soft refrain
Toiled over in somber silence
My proud and beloved song

At long last
I am
Preserved from the likes of terror
To strive no more
For a strand of certainty
Laden with constant fear

If only for a while
Is a burden felt long ago
A forgotten structure
Enamored by moss
Confined to its quiet frontier

At long last!
At long last!
Euphoria clings to me!
