Though the sun was the only light,
To shine within my heart then.
I knew someday it would come inside,
I just had no idea as to when.

Then quite by mistake I found,
Light that warms my heart still.
And I could feel myself released,
As my heart inside was filled.

Gone away in a quickened breeze,
I gripped my coat tight about me.
The wind biting my face harder,
And it hurts so I cannot see.

This is not the physical pain,
That hurts enough to kill my soul.
Causing me to go totally insane,
I must believe what has been told.

I can't give in to this just yet.
I need that faith of the promise.
The cold world not helping to set.
There will be another empty morning.

But I will still try to carry on,
And just when my world crumbles.
I will grasp her from the shoulder,
And my heart will hold that pain.

And struggle so much to breathe.
But that promise keeps me going.
It helps my heart to believe.
That is all we can do when it comes.
Just bite our lip and hold tight.

Struggling through so many things.
Until finally we reach that light.
Hold onto your heart and soul.
Keep striving to reach that one gone.
