At Dawn

In the quiet, where shadows play,

I ponder life, in a fleeting day.

Why do I walk this earthly sphere?

What purpose holds me, drawing near?

Am I but a star in cosmic dance,

Or a fleeting moment, given chance?

With a heart that beats, and a mind that dreams,

I seek the truth in life's grand scheme.

Through cherished love and heartfelt tears,

I find my way through passing years.

Perhaps my quest, both far and clear,

Is simply to be, and to hold dear.

In twilight's glow, where whispers blend,

I chase the echoes, to comprehend.

With every step, through night and dawn,

I weave my tapestry, till I'm gone.
