Light of Solace
As the cheerful sun peeks into plates of morning home curtains
I woke up to the scent of new day I’m little uncertain
Fresh from yesterday’s remorse I don’t wanna go back
That shattered my hopes used to be intact
Every day seems to be turning very fast
Moments flew freely like fine, powdered dusts
Where will each day find and lead me
If I’m chained to the shadows I don’t wanna go back?
Pain stabs my inner self, thrusts the core of my only escape
Regret fills me, and drowns this man in the ocean of hate
What will I do, if I’m locked in the realms of darkness
Will I succumb into the depths of this deadly twirl so endless?
Until one voice spoke to me earnestly
It cling tightly, wrapping my soul so dearly
The swabs of comfort clouds surrounded my being just right
I knew it was him from the brightness of sheer light
Then I realized, there’s no more dwelling in the dark
I’m drawn to something big, a new adventure every day to embark
It’s a matter of perspective, choice and outlook on life’s brighter side
Where in the toughest times, Look up! Mr. sun still shines, and it’s where hope and faith reside
