From the darkness I stride
to stand in the light once more,
to know rebirth yet again.
I have found the taste
of joy to be refreshing.
I have come to know
the feeling of love forgotten
but found in my redemption.
I can see my path once more.
I do have my fears though,
I fear the slow setting of the sun
and the night that follows,
the night dark as death.
The fear of losing joy found
to the evil that lies ahead.
I fear love and losing its touch yet again.
I fear the unknown
that waits at the edge of my path
to pull me off
if I take but one miss step
in this new light.
But who am I
to let this fear rule my life
when have I ever bowed
at their knees
with my sight locked on the floor
at their feet.
No I stand in defiance
and look fear in the eyes,
this is my day,
my time,
my new beginning,
and I will have no one taking it from me.
From the darkness I stride
to stand in the light once more,
to know rebirth yet again.
