My Corner, My Light!
Here I sit In my Darkend room. I am crying In the dark corner. How I got there I don't know. I sit there wondering, "Where did I go wrong?" Where do I go from this dark corner? I sit here pondering my life. I can see in my mind and heart what I want. It seems impossible for me to reach. I am alone crying in my corner. I see someone opening my door. It is you! I look up. I wonder, "What is he doing here?" I say to him, " I thought you didn't care?" I am thinking to myself," Is he here to criticize me? Is he here to mock me?" You just look at me. I say to you,"Do you care?" You hold your hands out to me. I look at you, I am trembling with fear. I ask myself, "Should I take his hands?" Then I look in your eyes. I don't see pity there. I only see the love you have for me. I look up at you in wonderment. How could I have missed this in you? I give you my hands. You gently help me up. You pull me tight against you. You kiss away my tears. You tell me you love me. How could I have ever doubted the love you have for me? I look at your telling eyes and tell you,"This is where I have always belonged!" I feel safe with you. You are my hero...I am no longer afraid in my dark corner crying. I see you..You are my light! The only one!! Written By: Julie Haslett 1-21-2004 |
