Sunbeam

Sunbeam As the lightning strikes, I close my eyes again; I wish for the clouds to part so I can feel the sun shine. When the darkness fades, I let my sad mood drift away; As I raise my head to look up, there is no more rain And everything is alright. No more cold winds blowing through my bones; No more dark nights, no more frightening times, no more endless miles. A change of heart has appeared And I have received a blessing of the soul; I can walk amongst the strangers once more and embrace their smiles. Out into the yonder, in search of a different future to my fate; This life is no longer on rails and it has only just begun. Where once I was a passenger, who was afraid of change, I am becoming a better person and embracing all that is to come. Breaking from the chains of my own history, fighting for this chance; I burst from my shell and dive into a book. Knowledge is power and if this is my last hope and all I have, Then I will grab the stars from the sky And turn them into diamonds, to give to you, to replace what they took. What matters is not always what we want; Sometimes we are not happy to settle for what we have. But desire is the ignition to a big bang called love; If confession is good for the soul, then speak aloud And never let that, just be that. Let the hurricane come and blow its wind of change; No tsunami can change my mind in these times of hope. If the ground cracks beneath my feet, I will grow wings and fly away; Because there is no disaster that could stop me telling you all I know. The world can stop spinning and the moon can fall from the sky, But I have a sun beam for a soul now, so I can illuminate the night. (C)2016 Aa Harvey. All Rights Reserved.
