He Brightend My Day

It was a dark day,
the sun went away.
Ugliness came to play,
I was robbed of my innocence!
He came into my room,
like a theif in the night,
he did things ,
that just was'nt right.
Whispering in my ear,
everythings going to be okay,
are words my mind would often replay!
It was on that day,
the sun went away.
In darkness,
I remained to play.
To drugs i turned,
to numb the pain.
My life was over,
never thought it would be the same.
As it was before i was robbed,
So on my knees,
I fell,
and gave it to God!
I said if your real.
then take this pain away.
I gently heard ,
my father say,
"Today is a brand new day"
He helped me forgive,
the one who took my innocence away!!
Now on my knees,
for him i pray.
Today is truly a brand new day.
God helped me,
to make amends.
God brought the sun back again.
If i didnt mention,
this was a divine intervention
