Dark To Light

Days are long Nights a lonely song Blades are her escape As she fits in, in no place Darkened room is her safety place Liquor is her way to forget the hurt space She wishes on every star Yet her dreams seem so far No one is there No one understands They say get over it They dont comprehend Black and blue fades The fear always remains She cries every night No one knows why music is her life She heals as she writes Looking out the window seal praying for light Shes looking into a place where she never belonged She always wished she would find where that place is No family No friends Its just her and her kids Trying to help them forget what they witnessed As she tries to forget being the victim She gives them everything shes got Her love shows in so many ways Yet so does the stress on her thats weighed She writes what she hears and sees She writes to be an escapee Some true Some thoughts Thoughts in which keep her from sleep Sleep which she is awakened every hour By the nightmares of abuse Which everyone knew how she was getting used They say she did it to herself She says she survived what most couldn't She overcame something she shouldn't Wishes on stars now coming true A brand new beginning A brand new life to pursue The love in her kids eyes kept her alive Everyday she fought to survive A battle of many wars No more pain Now shes saine No more darkened rooms The light has filled all the rooms No longer on the floor No more crying out "please no more" On top of the world Shes as precious as an ocean pearl She made it through many storms As you can if you never give up
