Heliacal Rising

Everyday I woke up to a world

that told me I was useless

everyday a million insults they hurled

but you always said I was precious

Everyday I woke up to the sunshine

that mocked my existence,I walked a fine line

at times profound at times profane

the insanity making it perfectly sane

You taught me how to live again

to brave each day, let go my fears and pain

For hours you would just talk to me

by being there you made me see

I was special, because you made me feel

I was invincible, My wounds began to heal

I found courage and strength in your embrace

To me you were a gift, God's saving grace

And at last I found some peace

My battered and weary soul at ease

I learnt to stand up once again

To feel the sun, enjoy the rain

I thank the heavens for this blessing

The sway of trees, the gushing rivers to me they sing

The demons of my past conquered and slain

I am whole, the world is beautiful again...
