Like everyone I see your smile so soft and bliss
But I know there is sadness inside you too
It lingers deep in the darkness
Emerging when you thought you made it through

You stood on what was sure to be solid ground
But you never saw the hole that was really there
Falling deeper into the world's dismal sound
You suddenly realize you were standing on air

The night is meeting it's end
This gloom has meaning for now you are free
The dawn is coming and you will stand again
You, my friend, will encourage not just me
I'm so glad you're doing better! You've encouraged me, and I'm sure you will encourage many more
