Based on Henry David Thoreau's ideas about morning (yes, this was an assignment)
To awaken
Is to open my eyes
Not those which view the physical world
But those which see the truth
In words
In sounds
In sights
To awaken
Is to remember
To dream in the light of the day
Of the world
How it is
And how it could be
To awaken
Is to be open
To all
And everything
To accept everything
As the heart sees it
To awaken
Is to be alive
