A word spoken unheard
A thought never revealed
A feeling in ones heart
That has been forever sealed
The pain in ones eye
The sadness upon their face
These all buried deep inside
As loneliness they embrace
A ray of hope dies out
Thoughts of doubt soon consume
Questioning of ones self
Will sadness forever loom
A sudden word is spoken
The glow of light they see
A bond is formed between two
Is this is what was meant to be
A soft kiss upon their lips
Kind words fall upon their ear
Erosion of all the darkness comes
Wiping away all the sadness they wear
A life full of visions now
Their heart open and so free
Rejoicing that the bonds are gone
Their happiness all can see
They look into the eyes of this stranger
The one that saved them this day
Wondering what path brought them together
And if in their world they would stay
A twinkle of happiness in their eye
A gentle smile they can see
A warmth grows now deep inside
A life has been set completely free
