Father Time has held her tight
While Mother Nature guides the way.
In all her pain and fearful plight,
She's found a home from which she's strayed.

A hardened heart did scar her wrists
And empty eyes held truth untold;
Been rescued from psychiatrists
And under beds, alone and cold.

Through all the days behind a screen,
And wishing upon what has been,
She sought a light and one was seen;
It's time for her to laugh again.

  Well, truth is, I'm not quite sure where the light is. I wrote this as an attempt to get outta my sadness...it only helped a lil. I guess I gotta be my own light. Thanks for reading.
