Not at any one time
Had I thought there would be a light at the end of the tunnel,

Never had I thought that I would find a key to unlock so many doors - so many solutions to my troubles,

I would never have thought I'd grow so tall to see over the plot of darkness that blinded me,

And then there was you.

When I met you, you carried me, you lifted me up so high that the darkness could no longer lurk at eye level,
It could no longer latch on to my leg as you clasped my fragile body and pulled me free from the dark's grasp, it's fingertips sliding off the soles of my feet.

At that point I was breathless,
As you ripped every last ache and pain that I was feeling, right from my heart, and watched as it broke into a million pieces, as sharp as shards of glass, painful and dangerous.

But it was gone,
Just like that.
The darkness had seemed so difficult to remove,
Yet the slightest of effort was made as your angelic hands lifted me away from all danger,

It's as if you're a saint in disguise,
As if we were destined to fall in love as soon as my eyes met yours,
From that moment on,
I knew that you were the light at the end of my tunnel,
The key to my doors,
The height of growth to my freedom of the dark - my saviour.
The answer to all of my questions
My reason to love,to live, to hold on,
The reason that I believe true love still exists.
