I found myself

In your eyes.

From the shadows

I shall rise.

 

Like a star

You’d guide my way.

And brought joy

To monotone days.

 

Remember the years

When I was alone.

Nowhere to run 

Nowhere to call home.

 

Swallowed by darkness

I lost my light.

I’d hide in a corner

And cry out of sight.

 

Then one day

I opened my eyes

And saw someone

walking by.

 

He looked at me.

And his eyes seemed to smile

At this lost girl

Who said “Stay awhile.”

 

Taking my hand

He dragged me along.

To start an adventure

And write our song.

 

I was monochrome

Yet now I’m alive.

My world full of color

What a beautiful lie

 

You knew time was close

And our song would not last.

But you still befriended me

And saw through my mask.

 

Your smile so bright

How could I ever forget?

All these memories we shared

And promises we kept.

 

I want to hate you

But I’m glad we met.

You who lived life

Without regrets.

 

When I looked

Into your eyes.

Beside the girl

full of sighs

 

I found me.
