Then I Met You

I was floating in the darkness,

Drifting in my loneliness,

Fading into nothingness,

Then I met you.

 

Surrounded by devastation,

Of my own creation,

Trapped in isolation,

Then I met you.

 

I was suffering rejection,

Troubled by disaffection,

Walking with no direction,

Then I met you.

 

I was lost among the shadows,

Drowning in my sorrows,

Always wishing for tomorrow,

Then I met you.

 

I thought my heart would never heal,

Separate lies from what is real,

Love was something I’d never feel,

Then I met you.

 

At last I’ve found myself a friend,

Someone on whom I can depend,

Wishing days would never end,

Because I met you.
