Each Tear a Blessing




With each tear drop
A sovereign foothold
is 
Reclaimed

A stifled voice
Rings out
From exile 
Renouncing
A life-long
Muzzle
Shaking loose
Ancient bondage
As 
A heart
Reaches tentatively
At first
Though 
Not for long

Each taste
Quickens
The pace

Now stalwartly
&
Unceasingly
Reaching
For 
The embrace
Of
It's Creator
