I am from dark hallways filled with shadows of yesterday's memories,
From hallowed corners where the broken once stood.
I am from holes in the walls from last night's treacheries,
From the rain of a daughter's thoughts about leaving, wishing she could.
I am from sleepless nights spent pondering many things,
From being swallowed by consciousness.
I am from loud silences that simple uncaring beings,
From sweet-nothings presented by a yellow sun's boldness.
I am from realization and regret,
From bad memories you won't forget.
I am from apologies and changes,
From hugs, kisses and make ups.
I am from new loving exchanges,
From helping hands and caring buildups.
I am from fresh starts and whole hearts,
From family and being happy.
I was from dark hallways filled with shadows of yesterday's memories,
I am from dark to light.

I am from dark hallways filled with shadows of yesterday's memories,
From hallowed corners where the broken once stood.
I am from holes in the walls from last night's treacheries,
From the rain of a daughter's thoughts about leaving, wishing she could.
I am from sleepless nights spent pondering many things,
From being swallowed by consciousness.
I am from loud silences that simple uncaring beings,
From sweet-nothings presented by a yellow sun's boldness.
I am from realization and regret,
From bad memories you won't forget.
I am from apologies and changes,
From hugs, kisses and make ups.
I am from new loving exchanges,
From helping hands and caring buildups.
I am from fresh starts and whole hearts,
From family and being happy.
I was from dark hallways filled with shadows of yesterday's memories,
I am from dark to light.
