My Song

A single glow from my light 
Illuminates the dark of night
Shadows dance, shadows fight 
Within these shadows, things do bite

Crazy yes, I know it seems
This is real, not like my dreams 
From that dark I hear the screams 
I'm grateful for my light that beams 

I pinch myself, yes I'm awake
I must push on for my life's sake
This can't be real, it must be fake
I do not know which way to take

Though I am me, I am strong
I'll go the way that's right not wrong
It will be hard, tough and long
This is my life, this is my song.
