When Darkness Fell Upon Me

Inspired by a friend that said to me “even without words, you are an inspiration”…thanks for your encouragement, everyone, even if it’s wordless in prayer~

Oh, break me in agony again…I truly dare you…
You’ll feel my pain times ten, my inner rue…
Friends forever was a thing in our minds, in our happy-go-lucky minds
Ends meet and greet beginnings like sun to the blinds, to the blinds

Take my hand…
Understand…
I love…I love…I love…
When you fly me crazy, my dove

I love you so
When darkness fell upon me…fell upon me…
I love you though
Even when darkness won’t let me be…free…
Just know
We will follow
The footsteps of the unknown
And make progress, for we’re not alone
We’re not alone…we’re never alone

Stay with me when I feel out of darkness
Stray with me into the light of the breeze
Don’t break my heart of childlike sadness
Ignore the negativity and be one at ease

Before we break apart,
Darkness fell upon me…
Take my hand…
Understand…

I love you so
When darkness fell upon me…fell upon me…
I love you though
Even when darkness won’t let me be…free…
Just know
We will follow
The footsteps of the unknown
And make progress, for we’re not alone
We’re not alone…we’re never alone

I love…I love…I love…when you fly me crazy, my dove
I care for you dearly, so take my hand and eventually,
We’ll be free with His right hand on our shoulders
Anxiety within will break apart like boulders

Take my hand…
Understand…
I love…I love…I love…
When you fly me crazy, my dove

I love you so
When darkness fell upon me…fell upon me…
I love you though
Even when darkness won’t let me be…free…
Just know
We will follow
The footsteps of the unknown
And make progress, for we’re not alone
We’re not alone…we’re never alone

Understand, we’re never alone
Never alone, nor on our own
Even when darkness fell upon me
And you, the rest is unknown
Just know you and I will be free…
Thank you for your wordless encouragement of glee
In the here and now, don’t be down
So, wipe away that doubtful frown
