Stumble

I stumble through the dark night, nothing’s clear,
The metaphors aren’t complex, but still they’ve no idea,
I wish I could speak out in clarity.
My head was cracked, was broken; I was lost so recently,
I tried to hoist my spirit out but it swallowed me,
Back down. But you pulled me out.
You told me things I never thought you’d say,
We made memories that can’t fade away,
I wish I could have frozen time then,
But now it’s all clear, and it’s pointless trying to get myself back.
The words I stumble over draw you near,
You said that I inspired, I said you eased my fear,
I wish I could relate this to you.
There I stood, broken, in need of repair,
I reached out for nothing but caught your hand there,
You grasped. And pulled me out.
I told you things I shouldn’t have shared,
You took my hand and showed how much you cared,
I’m glad I know you more than back then,
You made things clear, and it’s pointless trying to get myself back.
A new life before me,
The old one went astray,
You said you’re right with me,
And you’re here to stay.
I used to stumble thinking there’s no way out,
But you healed my spirit and removed any doubt,
I won’t forget the time that we spent,
And now it’s all clear that I’m never going back to that mind.
