Floating away into the darkness,
All I could see was someone waiting there for me.
Pulling me in, seeking my soul.
When it met the darkness inside my soul, it pulled me in for more.
Darkness in me was all I had,
I thought it is what I was made of.
But when I was pulled in by that force,
It contained me taking all my darkness for its own.
Leaving me with a bright light inside.
Leaving me with a light of hope.
I had thought hope was for sucker,
But when I found it in my own soul,
I didn’t want to get rid of it ever.
The darkness will be mine whenever,
But the hope is mine forever.
