I never left

Smoke and shadows
Lies and deceit
Until the flame
Or lack of it revealed
For some it's petty
For some it's sadness
For some is rage
For others madness
But I have shown you mine
Was it at the right time ?
I had my darkness
I always kept it in
But you lit a flame
And this is no longer a dream
You can see past it all
You can see right through
The flame you lit again
Burns just for you
I'm no longer an empty shell
But will you tend to my fire
As I would tend to yours
And anything that you desire
As I can see your darkness within
It withers you slowly
As the one who left you
Is nowhere to be seen
But I am here again
Always at your side
Let my inner fire be the guide
Away from your darkness
Lean on my shoulder and cry
Cry until our eyes are dry
And when your eyes are dry with tears
When your heart is light with fears
Place your hand in mine again
Walk with me into the rain
There's nothing you need to say
I will show you the way
