I remember the day

The man came

Engulfed by the darkness of the attic

We sat in silence, unable to speak

Huddled next to each other

Desperate for hope

Then a piece of light appeared

The attic door slowly opening

The light it brought

Feeling like the sun

A man appeared

His eyes full of guilt

His life full of regrets

His heart weighed down by sadness

He looked at us deeply

He shook his head

And down below

We heard the words

Which to us felt

Like music in the air

Nobody is up there

Though the reply he received was painful

This man endured it

The sadness he carried

Was reduced that day

As hope reappeared

In both our hearts
