I sat within my tears of pain,
Not facing all around,
Not noticing the light within,
Or the reflection upon the ground,

I sat there with my misery,
I chose to bathe in sorrow,
Sitting hating reality,
Unsure if there's tomorrow.

I sat there in nights silence,
Almost scared to hear a sound,
Not noticing the ticking clock
Nor the hands that moved around.

I sat there with a glassy stare
Teardrops upon my face,
Not knowing now if I belonged,
For I felt I'd lost my place.

I sat there then I realised,
That this was not the end,
For all through pain and sadness,
There stood you my friend.

You offered me your hand to hold
As you guided me to light,
The memories of which way to go,
In the darkest of darkest nights...

Now with these words I'll close my friend,
And leave my thoughts with you..
That you are very precious friend,
For once again you pulled me through.
