Broken, now whole


In the darkness of solitude, I roamed
With my heart shattered, my spirit disowned
Broken and lost, I searched for a light
To guide me through the never-ending night

Alone and broken, I built my walls
Hiding my pain, ignoring love's calls
Afraid to trust, afraid to feel
For fear of being hurt, for fear of the real

But then you came, like a gentle breeze
Whispering words that put my heart at ease
You saw through my walls, you saw my scars
And with your love, you healed my broken parts

I fought against it, I pushed you away
But you stayed beside me, every single day
You showed me that love is worth the risk
And with you by my side, I found my bliss

With you, I learned that being alone
Is not the same as feeling alone
For in your arms, I found my home
A love so pure, a love like I've never known

Now I dance in the light, once again
Forgetting the pain, forgetting the pain
For with you, I've found my missing piece
And in your love, I've found my release

So thank you, my love, for mending my heart
For showing me that love can truly restart
And though I was broken, I am now whole
For I found true love, in the depths of my soul.
