The lonely lighthouse full of the sea and of its salt In the distance ship horns can be heard with their loud billowing swells Up above the grey gulls cawing with their wings fluttering looking for any crumbs None will be found here and no happy visitor greetings either only sad dormant farewells
Why do I feel so dull, Why is it I feel myself as just half a life and just half a light Please help me find my light that once shone so bright from within Help me find my purpose and to feel useful again
This lighthouse beacons for me ~ can hear him and can feel him I could see what he use to be what he could still be so easily again I could see that light that shone from within After all, I knew how he felt I too had built up a lonely darkened wall
So I went to this lighthouse told him your light has been there this whole time You do not need a new light you are already a brightness a joy for all to see All you needed was some help to find it again All you needed was me
I hold him and tell him close your eyes Look up toward the sky my love Feel that cool sea air tickle your face Let that enormous sense of calm descend down match your breath to that of the sea and all else shall be erased
I wrote this for a special friend that needed reminding that he was still a bright light for all to see and that he never lost it just needed a friend to help find it xoxo
