• I loath the darkness,
    It washes away all pain,
    What we can’t see we can’t feel,
    It is our true nature,
    To realize that the light hurts,
    Locked inside my shell,
    Afraid to face it,
    Someone like me,
    I can hear them,
    Oh how I wish I could see,
    Their smiling face,
    Here they come,
    I can feel them drawing closer,
    They take my trembling hand,
    And lead me into the light,
    My face full of shyness,
    Theirs full of smiles,
    Directed at me,
    I can feel the warm sunshine,
    Smiles that last forever more,
    On my face,
    With my new
    Friends.
