Shine for me.

The darkest shadows,
Lie side by side,
with,
the Brightest Lights.

Shine for me.

Don't you know, how much this hurts?
Don't you know, you've brought tears into my eyes.

You're the pulse of every hope,
beating in my heart.

How,
How,
How could I,
Have fallen so far?

You were like this sheer, shorn cliff.
I peeked over the edge,
I saw how far there was to fall...
I took a breath, almost stepped away.
Glimpsed something in the corner of my eye,
Looked up into the Milky Way,

Transfixed, I saw things written there,
Like wings, like love, like serendipity..
In the blazing sky...

I wanted to believe so much,
that I did.
So I kept walking.


But I didn't fly.
