Shine On

Clear light shine on me…

Give me the strength to get through 

Give me the keys to the clue 

How do I turn my hue?

When he stared I got afraid

My insides - encaged

What’s with fear letting me be free now?

I see a tear, but it’s only me who knows the truth

The past is in the past

Nights aren’t as bad

I commend myself!

I got to sing a new song.

I see color outside now.

I walk with pride now.

My strides are longer, knowing that I followed my truest heart in the end.

I am my very own best friend.
