I used to walk in the depths
of the night
walking with
no one
but with my self
and my shadow
I live in the darkness
in the shadows
knowing no one
would I ever know
of
my existence
but only
. . . myself.
I don't mind
if I drown in the deepest ocean
fall from the highest mountain
lost in the darkest forest
knowing no one cared
for me . . . at all
knowing no one
could ever love me
for who
. . . I am.
But when you came
everything changed - - -
you brought light to my day
you are my light
out in the shadows
you changed me . . .
you turned my world upside -down
I could never love any one after too much pain
but now I do
I never trusted anyone after being
betrayed . . .
but now I trust you.
I'm afraid to give my heart .
to let some one ---
care for me . . .
love me . . .
trust me . . .
But now I have faced that fear
I've step up to the plank
To accept the challenge
Which is now the truth .
Before I was afraid to tell people
of who was the man who stole my heart
but now I'm not
I want to tell the world
about this happiness
the happiness given to me
by a special some one
who I will always call
. . . My King.
