Inner Truth, Inner Light

an inner truth an inner light obscured by youth and an inner plight so many years wasted remaining blind behind a veil of fears that always seemed to bind bind me to the past mourning yesterday things not meant to last aching for what went astray busy searching for what was out of reach feeling empty in my core missing lessons life tried to teach looking in wrong places for all of the wrong things at all the wrong faces missing God's blessings but what I needed was always there right from the start in my brown-eyed stare locked within my heart I found my inner truth I found my inner light no longer obscured by youth I know I'll be alright
