A dim light that always seems to be there
Follows me everywhere I go
A light that I never wanted to live behind but rather Infront of
A light I was always trying to escape
A light that never had meaning
A light that I thought could be the cause of pain
My shadow, my light, my energy
Carries me through my day
Supports me even when I can’t seem to find light at the end of the tunnel
A light that will never die
This light is a part of me
This light guides me
This light is me
