The Dawning

In caves, upon islands
and remote
Corners of earth dwell fighters
Lovers and survivors.
The world knows not this depth of heart.
The strength, courage and faith
These souls must summon
Just to survive.
When food is scarce,
When none come to rescue
Resilience must prevail.
Through endless days,
And perilous nights
When wolves lay by the door
Panting for blood.
And no relief is in sight.
When wounds and illness prey
On weak and hungry spirits,
The smallest of hope
Must whisper,
Try, try again.
A new day dawns tomorrow.
