Little did I think that I would heal,
From the pain and misery that haunted me in my sleep.
If only I had not have the will,
I would have long let go of my dreams.

The sorrow was deep and damaging,
And the future felt bleak.
But my heart was strong and breathing,
And my future lit dim.

I looked into myself and saw faith unwavering,
A passion bright and blazing.
The hope that breathed life into me was no longer with me,
But my heart, through all the pain and turmoil had finally learnt to live.

For I was strong and I learnt to heal.
