Reaching For Love , Conquering Darkness

Darkness and despair, light is disappearing, Hope is overwhelmed, fear keeps building, I extend my hand, praying for guidance But the embodiment of death arrives, wishing my end with calmness In the midst of surrender, the devil waits But then i hear a voice, which echoes '' my love do not despair your fate'' A hand reaches out with the promise to give wings and a prayer With wings i soar, out of the unforgiving crater, And a new found strength to live and not to fold i gained through my prayer Light has shone and the darkness has waded, Memories of suffering and depression all but faded, I search for the voice which gave me strength, A maiden appeared with love overwhelming, She gave me solace, felt like i was soaring, Our hearts interlocked, never threatening to tear asunder, At that moment a new resolve was awakened, Take me darkness, leave me broke, shatter my spirit and leave me shaken, But my love will endeavour, never having to fear consternation
