Your empty light

I saw a Flicker of hope today

As I walked through the street

then someone stared at me too long

left me alone in darkness but with heat

I know the light is there

cause i can feel its tender warmth

But it always runs away from me

it transforms into this torch

highlighting the way slightly

but not enough to let me stay

on the path I’ve made to heal myself

cause the light went off again

my anxious heart beat wakes me up

in the hope to find this light

I do my very best to push on through

this street but there’s a fight

inside my mind are racing thoughts

But my body is numb and hollow

in this moment I have since realised

the light I forgot to swallow

If only I learnt how to switch it on

to prevent this emptiness from the start

Id stop this frantic search I made

and find the light is inside my heart
