Hopes Messenger Poem by Beau Bennett

I awoke in a different place today, not the place I know
I think I felt my soul again, some strange emotion from it's hole

I abandoned the world once, to escape from all the pain
Yet I think I've found something new, it's surly not the same

I thought myself dead inside, my heart replaced with bile
Yet I saw the sun rise today, awoken by her amazing smile

I never saw the good in me, but through her I realize
I've grown so cold inside, but I see hope within her eyes

I think she showed me joy that day, that day I dared to feel
Her touch caused my heart to beat, and all my wounds seemed to heal

She's shown me something I had lost, or simply to afraid to seek
I may not be the one for her, but I've felt enough to be not so weak
