it only made me cry harder
when i grew older I stopped crying altogether
that was my mistake
somewhere along the line I forgot how to feel
I wasn't really living
I stopped breathing
I could've almost slipped away,
silent....into the escapes of night,
with no one to notice
I felt scared
I felt alone
alone....I thought I was
that was when I saw it.....
that ray of light....
that lit up my world
my new world, as it were
because I couldn't see before
all the beauty right before my eyes
you gave me new breath
you gave me new hope
you ray of light
you ode to truth
you and I were made to thrive,
I discovered as you opened my eyes,
and showed me my future
and my past.....
you are my light
you are my happy place
you showed me how to live
in this brand new world
you make me feel.....
brand new
