Darkness

Stumbling in the scary darkness

Wandering about in the endless abyss

Fear and melancholy is all that's felt

Giving up and facing reality, 

sitting in the corner, facing the wall

Not wanting it all to end, because it's all that's familiar

Nothing new or foreign to clear up

Same old thing, same negative thoughts

An old friend

A clicking sound

Turning around

There is a stranger, who comes with a light switch

Scared, like a caveman discovering fire

I stick to the far side of the room

The stranger extends their hand, palms flat up

A signal for trust

Running to them

Smiling,

Hugging

Crying

No longer feel like dying

Hoping they aren't lying

Just to fall back into the abyss

For now smile plastered on face

Have experienced grace

Now full of faith,

I fly
