The sun pierces the dark sky at dawn
Like a smile shattering a lonely face
Every morning begins with a smile from a friend
Time turns clocks like an unstoppable force
But I try to turn around and stop it
The sunshine is not enough for my lonely expression
Instead I wake to the darkness
It attacks me through the window
Attempting to steal all of my wonderous dreams
I try to escape it but I've nowhere to go
The nightmare creeps in and I look the other way
Waiting for dawn to stop the cursed moments
The world tries to tear through my walls
Trying to run from it but it surrounds me
I hide under the covers for a hope
A hope that one day it will finally be gone
Perhaps once I depart the darkness will stay here
Waiting is a waste of hope
Dawn comes like a divine intervention
But I am too caged to see that its here
Like a smile from an amazing friend
But I try to look the other way and cry
Love true and kind but hope is too far gone
To turn and see its beautiful smile
The sun breaks through my curtains
Illuminating my small room I'm hiding in
I want to go towards the pure light
And so I go to her
A smile appears in my usually desolate eyes
The last thing I feel is her needed embrace
