In Darkness

When the darkness came And the light faded It was then when she sat With her head in the clouds And her heart anchoring to the ground It was then that she felt More pain than ever before And when she cried Tears that nobody saw It was then that she recalled All the people that left And the ones who hurt her And helped her And guided her And stayed It was when the clock struck twelve When she missed them the most And when she was more thankful Than ever before It was when the darkness came And the light faded When she felt more than she ever felt before
