The Light

Have you ever seen that light?
And you just know that it's for you
It's like a hand reaching for your beating heart
And though you cry
You know it's going to take you away

Do you know the fear that crept beneath my skin that day
How I squeezed onto my knees
Please don't take me away
I'm sorry I regret it

Those dozens of pills on the floor
And no matter what I couldn't take it back
And the light was reaching out for me

And I called the only one I knew
In a mumble I told you I loved you
I didn't feel well
And I feared this was the last time I would hear that
That affection for me
I was scared
The light was creeping closer and closer to my eyes

Oh, God.
Give me another chance. Please.

The light actually reflected off this little mirror I had. But it was scary. It was allusive. Just thinking about it gave me the chills
