There Was A Time

• There was a time,
• Not long ago,
• When everything seemed,
• So dark, lonely and cold.
• 
  
• Hiding in shadows,
• Running from fears,
• Wasting my life,
• For all of those years.
• 
  
• No one to run to,
• No one to care.
• No one to hold onto
• When I felt scared.
• 
  
• So many tears
• All wrapped up in fears.
• So many wasted smiles
• For all of those years.
• 
  
• Was this the life
• That was meant for me?
• Was this my life
• Oh, how can it be?
• 
  
• My heart full of dread
• My eyes void of hope
• I know this is wrong
• But I am at the end of my rope.
• 
  
• I want to feel
• The love that I deserve.
• I want to be
• With someone without reserve.
• 
  
• Then it happened
• On a warm August night.
• The moon brightened
• And my heart saw the light.
• 
  
• With care and caution
• I proceeded to know
• All of the glorious wonder
• That he could bestow.
• 
  
• To hear him speak
• Is music to my ears.
• To listen to him
• Is what I want for years.
• 
  
• We are twins at heart
• We are so much alike
• No two people will ever know
• The special things shared that night.
• 
  
• My heart has begun to open
• My soul feels alive
• What is this wonderful feeling
• I want to enjoy this ride.
• 
  
• What ever may happen
• Either good or bad,
• I promise to stand by him
• And never let him feel sad.
• 
  
• He is my hope
• My salvation and more
• My life is much better
• Than it ever was before.
• 
  
• There was a time,
• Not long ago,
• When everything seemed
• So dark, lonely and cold.
• 
  
• I am so glad
• Those times are no more.
• I am so glad,
• That you are mine and I am yours.
