I have dwelt here for so long,
it has stained my soul,
here alone, by myself,
where no one can touch me,
no one can find me,
by myself.
I heard a faint sound,
a quiet noise in the distance,
somehow you found me,
touched me,
touched my soul.
You've given me the strength,
the need, the want,
to find my way out.
'Tho the stain on my soul,
will be there for a long time yet,
your belief gives me the strength
to say, "Good bye darkness,"
to step into the light,
where you are waiting.

well I did clarify no light honey but the picture indeed has light so I will allow you this

you painted the light as an escape to be with a loved one which is something well, not as much as I expected but grateful enough for me
.. you did a greta job hun!
