When the clouds of misery covered the sun
I didn't try to make the run
I didn't know the reasons to make it end
Darkness became my secret friend
I loved the cocoon I made
It was my secret safe place
I didn't know why nothing made me happy
Instead I seek-ed out the reasons to stay unhappy
I ignored the small rays of hope
In the wait of my miracle sunshine
My longing for my past and my expectations of the future
Messed my then present, only to later realize
How much I wasted my time!
I wish I could have slapped some sense in me
I wish I could have ended that misery in time...
