Your Light Shines

If not for the light of your being My world would be in darkness Submerged in a tormented sea My breaths would be so waning As I would wrestle the currents Praying and gasping, to be free Yet, your presence pulls me up Arms reaching through the blue Pulling me to the brightest sky If not for the light of your being I would have drowned all alone Just being left there then to die Dearest angel, your light shines Upon the entire world, but for me It is the source of all happiness Never extinguish the natural glow As it serves to make me better Or else, my life be suppressed
