Breaking through
the resistance,
long overdue, 
 
remembering youth, 
pain persistent,
breaking through,

deep hidden clues 
soon to awaken, 
long overdue, 

far higher view, 
if for an instant, 
breaking through, 

torpor removed, 
true consolation
long overdue,

Mercy ensues, 
grace, insistent, 
breaking through, 
long overdue.
