"The Light"
The light turns to darkness,
the summer turns to fall.
The flowers turn to weeds,
and I can’t feel anything at all.
My eyes begin to close,
and my voice begins to deepen.
My mind begins to slow its pace,
and my heart begins to quicken.
The stars have turned to clouds,
and the heat turned to rain.
The quickness in my step is gone,
because all my heart feels is pain.
The smiles turn to tear drops,
the laughter turns to cries.
The pain my heart is feeling right now,
has darkened up the skies.
The clouds begin to close in tighter,
and darkness consumes all.
And the rain begins to drizzle down,
but harder it must fall.
The lightning crashes,
and lights up the sky.
With this pain I feel,
I just want to die.
The world is a mess,
and all is a blur.
This is the end,
my life is over for sure.
But a beam of light peeps through the clouds,
and shines right on my broken heart.
It mends it up and brings renewal,
and a much better start.
