Within me, my heart lay heavy and
I wore my sorrow like a cloak.
The joys of the past were but a distant warm glow,
they faded away, slowly but surely,
like diying embers left in the rain.
I no longer laughed or looked forward to a new day,
I lived with apathy, dispair and pain.
Deep within me,without any doubts,
I knew that I was a soul in dire need of redemption.
Then you came into my life!
With you, you brought the sun,
Your love and kindness brought warmth and brilliance into my life.
I never knew that the birds would sing again,
that the sun would shine again,
or that the sky would ever be so blue
My love, you are the one!
You are my pathway to redemption.
