Not a Moment Too Soon

i was dying inside only darkness in sight couldn't find my way then you showed me the light i was crashing on down with the stars and the moon when you lifted me up not a moment too soon i walked a lonely path got lost along the way with a bottle in my hand i drank away the day i was crashing on down with the stars and the moon when you lifted me up not a moment too soon i walked away from life didn't care anymore nothing really mattered till you walked through the door i was crashing on down with the stars and the moon when you lifted me up not a moment too soon January 31, 2020 Pick A Title, Vol 13 - Lyric - Poetry Contest Sponsored by Edward Ibeh #5 Not a moment too soon (purely fiction for the contest...never been one to drink except rare occasions)

Hi there my friend. Just dropping by to say congrats on your placement in this contest. Not bad for your first time writing a lyric...I loved it. I could hear this one being sung.
