There was a time I was happy,
But not anymore.

All my dreams seem to falter,
I fall through the floor.

Down to the bottom,
A dreadful abyss.

Of darkness and sadness,
There is no relief.

I dreamed of a angel,
His radiant arms

Trying to lift me, and keep me,
And save me from harm.

All the while I was blinded,
I just couldn't breathe.

And the pain and the fears,
And the tears choking me.

I struggled for freedom,
I cried for his hand.

But the harshness about,
Threatened me in the end.
