Sitting on a lonely isle,
Without hope or thoughts of glee,
Then in the distance,
A dazzling star I did see.
A star that shone with the brightest hope,
That lifted me from the darkness.
Pulled up by a dazzling rope,
That radiated with light and warmth.
For the first time I saw,
What this world had to offer.
And I stood in awe,
And I did prosper.
These dark feelings that held me down,
Now dispersed by this new view I had.
I felt alive,
No more days of feeling sad.
The world in which I live,
Is so covered in beauty.
If only now I can forgive,
Myself, for what I chose to ignore.
Now I live each day,
With the vigor I once did.
No more hiding away,
Like a frightened little kid.
