You!

I wasn't looking for anything
or in the dark I could not,
people all around but still all alone,
looking around, myself was all I got.

I was wanting something,
something I wasn't ready to admit,
I had killed myself in the process,
by going deeper into the pit.

Then somebody removed the shroud,
I could see what they called light,
it all seemed so odd at first,
but I could see the colors, new colors all so bright.

Someone was now helping me,
helping me to see the sights,
we saw it all together,
bright days, setting suns, lighted paths and moonlit nights.

Always beside me I could see,
a hand that I could hold,
Was this that I was looking for?
Had I ever got this feeling? living all too cold.

Everything and anything for a smile I did,
that smile slowly became mine,
Is it bad that this happened?
I really don't know if I crossed the line.

Was I better alone I wonder,
with no expectations whatsoever,
caring for no one but me,
Was it better not to feel this ever?

But then I think,
what would I have been, if not for you,
Far worse the mind tells me,
if you weren't my inspiration so true.

Maybe you'll realise some day,
but I hope that you don't,
what is even the point of it,
when I do but you wont.

I wasn't looking for anything,
but then I did find you,
stay with me, just hold my hand while we have time,
after all I'm a human too.
