My guiding light

by Silver Raven Wolf   May 16, 2008


Sitting here in the dark, rain drumming on the roof
Thunder and lighting strike, lighting up the night
I inside and all alone,crying out to an empty space
One candle penetrates the darkness of the room

But its dying slowly, just as I am
My heart torn into a million pieces
I try to put them back together,
But it'll never be the same

Two have claimed my heart
Locked in an endless battle
They pull back and fourth
In an endless game of tug-o-war

Finally its to much my heart breaks
One rips up their side hoping to find a prize
The other comforts and tries to ease the pain
I fear both will leave me, since I'm broken

One stomps their foot in anger, and walks out
The other brings the pieces back to me
One half is whole, the other shredded
He is patient with me, and he tries to help

He helps me put all the pieces back together
My heart is whole after many months
But he still knows how tender it is yet
I try to build up walls, but he always slips through

Telling me no, to trust him
I want to, I really do
But the question is can I?
I'm afraid though I'll never tell

Outside the storm rages on
As does the one inside me
The candle flickers one last time
Then goes out all thats left is the glowing ember...

The tears fall harder, fear is taking over
The darkness closing in...
Then suddenly another candle is lit
Bright and warm, he pulls me close

His warm arms wrap around me
He tells me everything will be OK
He tells me that he'll never leave me
Never let the darkness consume me

As I fall asleep in his arms
The storm outside still rages
My storm has found a guiding light
In his arms I know my battle is coming to an end...
