It's been  a while since the sun has come out
Surprised by how much it's helped
No longer caged like a bird, I'm free
but still something is nagging at me
The thin string tying me to fear
Won't break no matter how far out I veer
but I don't doubt my remedy one day,
I'll live freely for eternity.

I'm not me anymore
The author's pen writes my destiny
My hair is different, face is different
My whole world has changed in an instant
There is no time here
As the pen dictates my actions follow
I'm in a new place and even though I've never been here before everything is so familiar
My true self lays at home in bed but the images of this new place is so vivid, the bed fades away each time I turn the page
My heart crashes into my stomach
I turn that last page and its over
A hard bed and harsh sheets greet me as I come back to reality

You follow me around as the sun seems to follow you here on earth
You extend to me your warmth and light
Casting shadows out of my life
Even when things cloud you from me you lay in wait, for the chance to be free
Everywhere I go your warm rays dance on me
Eventually you'll disappear but I know in my heart
You're still here
