In these times, eyes wide having seen so much,
Searching for freedom, regaining a sense of touch.
Leaving lasting footprints without traveling to a far,
Moments of victories and defeats, forever, stored in a jar.
These lessons learned all will never carry a price,
Now content though fighting battles of war over suffice.
With fear to overcome this next step faithfully taken,
Believing what lies within, a gift, treasured inside will fully awaken.
