There used to be a lonliness
that lived deep inside of me,
The person on the outside
was all anyone could see.
They noticed not the scars,
the wounds that now had healed.
I kept a smile upon my face,
So nothing was revealed.
There used to be an empty spot,
that ached inside my heart,
Sometimes when it was beating,
I was afraid it would fall apart.
Since you have come into my life
there is so much that we share,
I no longer feel so imcomplete
for I have you to care.
With someone I can turn to
as a trusted, loving friend
who I can be myself with
and not have to ever pretend;
My heart is so much lighter,
my spirit at last feels free.
Yes, things are so much different now
than what they used to be.
