End of Darkness

The darkness grips my very soul,

my heart just a blackened hole.

Even in the brightest light,

darkness wins every fight.

All the thoughts that fill my head:

stress, worry, and anxious dread.

Surrounded by many a friendly face,

I still feel alone and out of place.

I don’t know what to do

to stop feeling so blue.

Then you’re there, a light in my dark,

and there’s the start of a tiny spark.

The spark grows day by day,

and I hope you’ll always stay.

My sad heart begins to heal,

and I start to finally feel

more than just worry and dread,

happy thoughts invade my head.

You chased the darkness from my soul,

and made my heart completely whole.
