I have to stop and think to myself. Maybe now she’s happier - maybe not

Maybe I only dragged her down - maybe not

Right now all I can say is that you haven’t left my mind

You’re the only one on my mind

One million distractions disappear as I draw only one conclusion

No delusions

The veil of my unconsciousness is lifted and nothing is in my way - I think clear

My face revealed, my mind cleared, all my secrets that have built me whisper loudly. I see me

Something I haven’t seen in such a long time

A savior? A monster? A man torn apart

The cold, naked new born who choose to be in the dark

Carrying a wrinkled body which is my own - and two children lost

I hid from myself when I tried to find who I was

I had to change who I was

Being in the dark can sometimes reveal things the light shines over

Things I tried to bloke out - looked over - dismissed as reflections of light

They are there, they are with me now. They’re my comfort and my heartfelt joy. They guide, they chant in chorus and they hum the beat of my heart
