It wasnt how it should have been
Did i not knew to go unseen
It wasnt that my heart was made
To brake unto shattered pieces laid
A thousand tears that ran my cheek
When all i wanted was to be free
Instead unheard the prayer i praid
Instead ten thousand days to face

It wasnt that my self should die
It wasnt in the truth subside
To take away my sense of worth
My self love stolen from myself
Making light of my despair
Taken into count no where
Never letting me to go
Slowly poisoning my soul

Time was flowing each day through
The strength to come in paid due
Had i not knew what heartache was
Would happiness elude me too?

No
For it was the path
The journey fate
For me to travel
To undertake
To discover whom i had to be
The truest essence of purity
Like a diamond facing heavy weight
To shine in worth reciprocate
It was the way to face rebirth
It gave me more of Love's worth
Keeping me for ever more

And in the moment
Let me say
I forgive you
And bare no blame
For what Life deemed
Has given me
A glimpse of peace
Eternally
For every hole that my soul enfolds
Is letting light shine from without
Finding that growth takes place
When cracked the ground
From underneath the leaf takes shape
And freedom reigns within change
What once had died
Bore
Life again
