I Look Above

Of all the ways to write it
of all the ways to speak
I can't seem to find a way to say it
can't give my thoughts their feet.
I want to say I'm grateful
that darkness walks away
I want to make you see
that I am finally here to stay.
But there is no way to thank you
there are no word's to say
what you have given to my heart
what you have given me in days.
I don't know if it was chemicals
if my mind's been so corrected?
Or did my vision finally clear
the good things seem projected.
The lonely darkness had me
of that there is no doubt
I walked across a desert
but I made it through the drought.
Now the path is clear to me
I know the road ahead
the grasp has lost its fury
I can sleep upon my bed.
I look above
ignore below
I see things
As they should be.
I understand
that darkness has no hold
I don't give freely.
When I see you
my mind responds
and I finally remember
that no words
could ever thank you
no words could
make you see.
That I am grateful
for my life
with you beside me
free.
