Happy Thoughts

 By Logan Lewis

-

I have been in a dark place in my mind
Time to strike a match and find my way out
It’s time to break free and be good and kind
No matter who out there would cast a doubt

I’m just about there, I can see the light
It’s getting late and time is running dry
Now I’m getting close all is very bright
When I get there tears of joy I shall cry

The darkness is staying right in the past
That is where it belongs as I move on
There is no more need for rose-colored glass
I am moving forward I now see the dawn

I have now escaped from the dark and cold
I just saw the light I now want to hold
