Giant illusion

Fear, doubts, the long years and motions

morphed into a giant illusion

of an end that would never come

and of tides that would never turn

Then one day, an ordinary day

just started slowly yellowing

into the long awaited end

exuding joy with its brilliance

I did not remember being bound

yet I sensed invisible chains

breaking, losing their grip on me

my night charged with explosive joy

I have always thought time and tide

waited for no one, here they were

waiting, knitting my sense of worth

and my efforts into beauty
