When I was young
I feared the night,
Alone inside, with myself.
A stranger man you'll never meet,
I know this for a fact,
Because each day,
In the mirror,
This stranger and I greet.

And yesterday I was depressed
Because a girl said to me adieu.
But in that darkest night of souls,
The blackest sky will turn blue.
My hope I watered with a faerie tear
And soon the darkness will disappear,
And dawn, with smiles and lips to kiss,
Will, over the horizon, make my fears remiss.

These three lines conjure the most poignant memories of my childhood. Being alone, in the dark and afraid. Shook me. Thanks!

I know it seems like I just jump on and simply thank everyone, but I can assure you that is not the case. This was amazing...and thank you.
