From Darkness To Light

The moonlight falls on my face
As I lie down on my bed, alone.
The light’s becoming dimmer and dimmer
As a set of dark clouds is covering the light, the hope.
I look out of my window, searching for the light,
The light which will bring happiness back into my life,
But all I see is darkness.....

The darkness goes on and on
Till I think that I’ll never see light again.
All my hope has drained out
And all I can pray for is a light at the end of this tunnel
But it seems as tho' my prayers will not be answered.

Night becomes day, but I'm still waiting,
Waiting for that light.
It does not come as dawn breaks
As the dark clouds have refused to move.
It's as tho' the sun is hiding it's face from me,
Scared that he too will become miserable.

Just as I think that I cannot go through this anymore,
The sun peeps out of the clouds.
A ray of pure gold light strikes my face
And at long last I smile.
The smile reaches my eyes, lighting up my face.
Now I know nothing can go wrong.
