Sweet relief washes over me
My soul sighs as my heart mends
The last of the teardrops
Catches on my eylashes
Before it gently splashes on the page of life
I watch the dark, lonely mark
It leaves, as slowly, slowly it dries
And dissipates the pain inside
Soothing the dreadful ache
Leaving just a stain of a memory in my book
With sweet tenderness I carefully gather
The pages of my world together
The loose leaves are wildly scattered
But I will find them all and
Replace the chapters I have written in blood
An ironic smile plays upon my lips
It turns into a wide grin
In appreciation of all that has happened
All that has made me this person
And everything that has shown me how lucky I am
That I am free to dance and skip
And shout and cry 'Hallelujah'
Laughing and sharing and being me
That person I lost a while ago..
Is gradually coming back to life and reality
So thank you friends, one and all
For holding my hand when
I started to fall into the darkness
You pulled me out of the pit of deceit
And lovingly healed my fractured, broken spirit
I can once again be happy
That is all I have ever wanted
To enjoy this life that is full
Of riches, and joys and miracles
Finally, finally, I can breathe the sweetness..
