Bare bulbs flicker at break of day
Windows pale in a muted gray
You brew tea for the ones worn thin
Letting comfort quietly begin
Footsteps drag through a cluttered hall
Voices crack as the burdens fall
Your soft laugh shifts the morning’s weight
Changing fate with a gentle state
Hope returns in a measured role
Strength revives through a humble goal
Happiness blinds what darkness stole—
Dawn comes true in the light you bring to ordinary souls
