One night awake

As the walls close in it gets harder to feel.
Anything.
Moments and memories of the past haunt my dreams,
And some fuel nightmares...
A brief encounter breaks through the stillness,
And I revel in the ability to feel again.
One night the numbness fades...
A heart touched in the sweetest way.
The darkness, ever present, tries to drown me;
But my own fire will carry me through.
Ascend until your wings blaze,
And let the moment carry you.
