There

I was there when you first felt lonely,
abandoned, lost, and carefree.
Flying with the wind and letting your hair loose,
Smiling to the sky for dreams would always come true
Blessing each day with a hearty laugh and a stomach full
The days were young and the night was calm
The stars were beautiful, like angels praying to the gods.
I waited and listened cautiously,
Believed I would find you
Believed that you would find me.
All hope was never lost and trust was never vanished.
I waited and waited for an answer
A truth to this pain and a truth behind my mother's tears.
I realized the answer was deep within my heart
A blade piercing my skin and a shield broken.
You were the shield that protected me from the devil's horns
the misfortune and tears.
I had you and everything was so serene.
No matter what I believe, who I believe, or where I believe,
I will never find you
Never seek you
Never hear you
Never find you
For all hope is lost and faith is regained.
Believe me, the thorns are up and the shield is healed.
Without you, everything is going to be thrived.
