It Feels Like Spring
I’ve come to realize I have no place in the past.
There is sadness and sorrow in the shadows it cast.
I need to go forward and move on.
All that I once knew, it is all gone.
As the clouds parted there is a new light.
The love in my heart wants to burn bright.
Where once I felt that I was bound to the night
From out of the darkness there shines a new light.
There is happiness in my heart that I want to share.
When I was all alone I had thought I did not care.
Now there is someone with life I can share,
I never want to turn back and return there.
She smiles her heart is much like the sun.
I see that I already love her a ton.
What she wants, I also want some.
She is the glue so I don’t come undone.
She is much like the stars and moon in the night.
Sparkling with delight and shining so bright.
A beacon to guide this once troubled soul.
With her at my side I start to feel whole.
I get excited with what the future may bring.
The love that I now feel makes my heart sing.
With her at my side I feel I can do anything.
It is the middle of winter yet it feels like spring.
