Found Life

Walked once on the sunny side of life
                         Though the storms of life crashed
                                 Thundering all about
                         A whispered scream was hushed
                             And dreams were dashed
                               And faith was faithless
                                In my heart of doubt
                        I hid behind a script I took a bow
                                 I made them scared
                            Or sad, or laugh or care
                           Then disappeared because
                                   I was no where
                          The darkness stretched before
                                   Me Deeply wide
                                    To finally wash
                                Me with that final tide
                               But Light came quickly
                                 Rushing to my side
                            I found life that cold day
                                      I Thought
                                       I'd died
