Because of you

Because Of You:

Once there was darkness an empty abyss, no light could filter through, the world was seen through a haze of tunnels, and there was nothing I could do. Then a spark was lit that ignited into a fire, emotions flooded back to me, with all my deepest desires, and finally I could see. The warmth of the sun the twinkle of the stars, the world was now my sea, a vast expanse of hope and dreams in a world that had escaped from me. For so long now light had been cast away but now it filters through, a hope a dream a smile a laugh, and it was all because of you.
