I fell asleep
Laying in a pile of ashes
I found a place where shadows
Covered the earth
Dark spirit roamed the forest
I could hear them
They’re menacing voice surrounded me
I ran through the darkness
Looking for a way out
⋆

✫
Overtime I gave up
I fell into the darkness
You reached out your hand
Full of light and warmth
You tried to pull me out
You told me
We could find a way out
Or make our own light trying
You saw sunlight in the horizon
My only wish
Was that I could have believed you
⋆

✫
My cold heart beat for you
But all I could hear was
They’re cackling
The gnashing of their fangs
The dark spirits never left
They pierced my heart
With their poison
They told me
No one could save me now
I’m all alone
I had to escape
⋆

✫
I made a fire
To drown out the darkness
To find my own way out
Even if I had to make the ultimate sacrifice,
Leaving you
I was too weak
I couldn’t control it
Smoke filled the sky above
Flames swallowed the ground below
⋆

✫
I could hardly hear the roaring flames
Over the dark spirits laughter
And your screams
I never meant to hurt you
I lost everything
In the fire
I lost you
⋆

✫
You never saw the shadows
Only the sun hiding above the trees
You tried to help me see it
But I couldn’t
I wasted my time looking for a light
That never existed
The only real light was you
Tears rolled down my cheeks
Only to be swallowed up by the flames
⋆

✫
I woke up
Surrounded by the ashes
Of what was a forest
I could see the sun
Rising in the horizon
I finally saw it
The beauty of the light
Is this what you saw?
⋆

✫
But most importantly,
I saw you
I looked into your eyes
But all I could see
Was the same darkness you saw in me
Your light was gone
The dark spirits
Filled your soul
I reached out my hand
I told you
We could get through this together
This time I’ll be your light
