Set You Free

Set You Free 12/12/12 By: Sami LaRose When the sun rises amongst the clouds who is there to see it? 2:51am and I cannot believe it. A glowing beam of yellow light emerges from the sky of clouds so bright. Is this a sign that all hope is not lost For such a long time I'd thought I would be better off in the dark But as the clouds open up in a pathway of two It makes me realize how much less I think of you. The sun smiles brightly, and beats down on my arm. It is almost as if she is signing me a little song "Be happy, be bright, be yellow, stay mellow" she says to me And she raises up higher to be amongst the trees As I lay there under the old beautiful weeping willow It's nice to know that I am letting you go. The sun shines so brightly and suddenly turns into snow, free falling at last no more disaster Maybe it finally is my happily ever after
