My bright light

October 10, 2011
By Anonymous

So cold and dark
where is my light
Screaming and crying but
no one answers
So I drop to the floor
and wait for death to come
then you walk in
you bring the light
You come because you
heard my screams and cries
You picked me up
looked into my eyes
making faces
until I laugh
So warm and cozy
No more darkness
laughing and smiling
as you keep being silly
I push my head back
and breath in the air.

My friend and brother inspired me because I was in a dark place at the time and they brought me to my happy place
