Once

Lost was my way
Tossed were my days
Daily, I fight
Alone in the night
Took
Me
Down
Noone, was there
None around
New was the day
The day we touched
Afraid
Hurt
Pain
Must learn again
Trust
Many, before
Few after
Walk them away
Sorrow in the laughter
Sank me deep
Almost to sleep
Eternal
Internal
New pages in my journal
Every night
New day
Old fight
Afraid of the sudden light
You shine
Bright to the dark life
Life called mine
I felt it
I saw
Wanting it
I must withdraw
Your touch is different
Maybe deliverance
Maybe what I can want
Can it stay
Just this once.
