She Was

She was the light That guided me through the storm; That chased away my darkest fears That, around my mind, swarm. She was the lifeline That was thrown to me When my life went overboard Into Sorrow's drowning sea. She was the breath That filled my lungs with air. When I needed to talk, She was always there. She was the sight That led me back to shore When I could no longer fight my sorrow Because I could take no more. She gave me the courage To fight Life's relentless rain, To keep on moving forward No matter how strong the pain. She was the cure To my disease called "Sorrow," And had given me the will To live to see tomorrow. She was the ship That came to my rescue When I was drowning in my Sea of Sorrow And didn't know what to do. She was the wind That blew the storms away, And brought out the sunny skies That brighten up my day. She was the thought To wheich I turned To calm me down when overwhelmed Whenever Anger's fires burned. She was the Huntress That saved me when I had to fight The raging wolves inside my mind That tear me apart at night.
