Excellence Award in the 'Horizon of Dreams 2018' competition

You are the song of longing,
The shifting tide.
You are the frightened child,
Run and hide.
You are the blend of love and hate,
Tired souls given rest with a sigh.
You are the movement of shadows,
Days time is nigh.
You are the dewdrop,
On the first winters morning.
You are the panic,
That takes hold without warning.
You are Indigo,
The colour of mourning.
