Blinded by Darkness
I found this dark place, it’s not friendly there
Everyday there is hurt, pain, and no one to care.
In this place with no light, I have not a friend
Not one with happy moments I can spend.
I see glimpses of the light, but they flicker away
They get me all excited and then lead me astray.
In this place of darkness, where light does not enter
I have a bleeding heart, stuck with a splinter.
I know you don’t care, that’s what makes this pain so
The yearning for a friend makes it continue to grow.
There is love in my life but when so many don’t bother
It’s hard to see love when it lacks from mother and father.
In darkness it’s hard to see those of you that love
In my weakness I can only turn to my Father above.
It’s hard to express what I’m feeling inside
Like the waves won’t continue being a part of the tide.
Yet it is a part of nature, bound to occur
Yet why every time the waves form am I still unsure?
I’m at a loss for the words that still need to be said
So I am left here with only quiet tears to shed.
It’s not easy no one ever said it would be
Yet why is it so hard, out of the darkness to see?
Why is my vision blurry, why am I so blind
Why is there constant confusion running through my mind?
Will I ever again be able to see the light
Or will I just learn to walk without sight?

A Song From the Heart
If you could reach the stars, would you give them all to me?
Would you help me become more than I could be?
“Even the best fall down sometimes, even the stars refuse to shine”
You are always there and “I can feel your heart in mine.”
No matter where I go, you will always be in my heart
It will always be “such a shame for us to part.”
“I will walk with you til the sun don’t even shine”
We shall walk together with your hand in mine.
“You are my sunshine, you make me happy when skies are grey”
“You’ll never know how much I love you, don’t take my sunshine away.”
“If nothing’s missing in my life, why do tears come at night?”
Yet “through the darkness I can see your light.”
“Too many years fighting back tears, why can’t the past just die?”
“Try to forgive, teach me to live, give me the strength to try.”
“You’re everything that makes me believe, I’m not alone”
You always make sure that to me love is shown.
“It only takes a little time to answer someone’s biggest prayer”
It only takes a moment to show how much you care.
“Light your world, let the love of God shine through”
and know “when the rain come I will hold you.”
For “in your name there is strength to remain”
The ability to withstand all of the pain.
“When I stand in your presence to my knees will I fall?”
“Will I sing hallelujah, will I be able to speak at all?”
“Because I knew you, I have been changed for good”
You do more than one person ever could.
