Ray of Light

There were nights
I'd sit alone in the dark and
cry myself to sleep.
Wishing for someone
to fill my thoughts
come into my life
and replace the darkness with light.

Then you came along
like the first star every night.
Bright, brilliant, full of promise
like a ray of light
you light up my days
light up my nights
and fill my life with hope.

Thanks again Deb. Real love is pure and beautiful, anything written from the heart about that must be as well. Take care, Ron
