You Saved Me

I was on the edge of lowliness,

I was on the brink of despair,

Staring into the vastness,

Cold winds whipping my hair.

As I looked into my uncertain future

I can say I wasn’t that scared.

You see I’d taken for granted

That I was the only one there.

As I tried not to step into the emptiness,

The deepest darkest despair,

The blackness retreated around me,

The winds silenced through my hair.

Because now I look at my uncertain future

And know that I’m not scared.

You saved me, you see, from the darkness,

Because I wasn’t the only one there.
