Emotion-filled Shimmer

When I look back on the winding road...
...in the fog that is my mind...
You asked me how we got here...
...and I thought of it in rhyme...

For years, my life was a burden...
...massive weights upon my shoulders...
'Til I realized who my friends were...
...those masses turned to pebbles from giant boulders...

Amongst the carnage left from problems...
...of which I had no control...
I became a better person...
...from the strengthening of the soul...
And, although I was a stronger person...
...that didn't matter much to most...
They treated me almost lesser...
...almost all the new friends turned to ghosts...

More carniage, more danger, more cold and lonely nights...
...more sadness, more madness, more time for me to write...

When I was filling my self-loathing...
...out of the blue came someone new...
...with a brilliant mind and stunning looks...
...for the first time, I knew I'd make it through...

Out of the darkness came a shining light...
...and from the shimmer there came you...
With an open mind and open ears...
...my being felt renewed...

It's only the beginning of the path sundrenched with light...
...and, though, this part seems all too perfect...
...there's more darkness still in sight...
We cannot let future dictate what could happen in the now...
...this relationship will never perish...
...that's my promise, that's my vow...
