Dimmed Lights

In the glow of the dimmed lights,

I see a shadow of the future,

A piece of what it could look like,

A spectral of the one I could become,

It has always been a challenge,

A long and bloody fight,

When i thought it'd just won,

It all came tumbling down.

But here I am now,

Straining against the dimmed lights,

But praying that the dream is valid,

And I'll be able to succeed now,

In the end it's all in his hands,

I surrender and hold hope,

That this time,

Things will turn around.
