FROM THE DARKNESS COMES LIGHT
When trauma follows trauma
And you build a wall to hide
Where nothing else can touch you
Whilst you lay deep inside
Where no one else can hurt you
So pain can be no more
And none can see that jibbering wreck
That’s you upon the floor.
At first it is your safe house
It’s walls held thick and true
Where only you can see the bricks
Of that safety net round you
Each day you add another brick
In that wall around your mind
Till you become oblivious
Of anything unkind.
As Bit by bit you heal inside
You need to see the light
So you get to add a window
To the wall that is your life.
As window follows window
You edge towards the door
To try and see that person,
The one you were before
It takes a while to venture out
That pull of power is strong
That wall you built around you
As everything went wrong.
But sure as daybreak lightens
And sunset turns to night
Your life will lift and lighten
Then once again be bright.
You’ll always keep a thin veneer
To protect you when In need
But that wall you built to shield you
Will tumble down like weeds
You’ll get to see the brighter days
Far more than you have done
And when that last brick tumbles
You’ll rise to face the sun.
