The Silver Lining of Therapeutic Words

Compassionate auras is what I see
When you talk your talk so gleefully
You are searching for the light in goodbye at the break of dawn,
But find yourself someone to have a sincere shoulder to cry upon

So sick of the small talk these days and sick of walking the same old route
You know what I'm talking about – the hopelessness, drowning us in doubt
Save me as I slowly fall away into the heartless abyss
Kill the helplessness inside and give in to happiness

Confidently, you talk by experience
It amazes me – your unique radiance
Kill me with your kindness and thrill me with your thundering might once more
I don't want to be left behind and please don't shut the front door on me anymore

Memories of you fade in my mind unfortunately
I fear letting go of my insanity into the whirlpool of confusion frankly
Honestly, I am probably this broken record in your life…a never-ending tune of move-on
Isn't it bizarre that I know your weaknesses and strengths all by heart? I can go on and on about it, hon

Your touch, you held me with your cold, chamber-like hands
Loved you so much, but you're like an airplane, landing on foreign lands…
Never landing on the precious land of my understanding apparently
Never-ending like the numerous sand in the beach of pure prosperity

Struggling to see the beauteous sun as I swim this shimmering shore, 
Hidden amongst clouds of uncanny uncertainty
I am lost in my dark cave and I wonder if I'll ever be braver than before…
Also lost in the forbidden forest of glistening gravity

There's a silver lining beyond sinking below the surface of serenity
There's a silver lining of simply letting go and accepting reality for what it truly is…have some hopefulness
There's a silver lining in your prudent, compassionate auras ardently
There's a tragedy in reverse in your miraculous life of strife and peace that leads to unconditional happiness

So weep not, for God is near…
You've sought a heart without fear…
There's a silver lining everywhere on Earth
You must hold on to it dear like remedial mirth
