The stars listen to all I wish to confide.

The oceans tide flows in like tears I have cried.

My heart has survived so much pain.

Yet still sadness rains on my soul.

Against my will, the darkness will at times return.

Doubts burns in my mind.

I find myself questioning everything in my path.

I keep pushing aside everything I feel.

Like if I open my heart, I'll find that nothing is real.

My soul is yelling for me to listen to my heart.

Promises of a new start.

There's these small fractures residing in my heart from my past.

The hurt surpassing the hope I grasp onto.

Yet I refuse to let these dark thoughts tease me with what could be mine.

I refuse to let darkness snuff out the light, like a candle left flickering carelessly in the night.

My past can't decide my here and now.

So I have to ask my heart to guide me, somehow to what's meant to be.

He sits patiently waiting for me.

There to catch me if I should stumble and fall.

His heart full of love I can plainly see.

This man I can call my other half.

The man that brought light, in the tragic aftermath of my dark demise.

So these tears I now cry are happiness.

Joy for the love that shines for me in his eyes.
