Walking Away
I turned away from that dark direction,
For I did not know the way,
Towards the light of day,
Was all that I was searching for,
It was there,at that moment of content,
I found your eyes,opened wide,
The door of my heart opened,I leapt,
Not like before,but with respect,
The hope that I had been reaching for,
Came in the form of a pure light,
That gleamed from your eyes,
As if a sparkle,a twinkle of hope,
To this day and here after,
I smile for a new reason,
To give more to than what I have taken from,
To where walking away is to not turning back.
