I hold on to a hand to get me through the dark
To walk with me; take me to the light
But the darkness makes me blind...
I forget to notice it doesn’t hold me back
I forget my guard, I enjoy the bliss
I assume its taking me through another day
Giving me the support I need
But you see, that day, I just stood still
I didn’t walk towards that light at all
I took me through nothing
But my guard was down, the illusion was still on
And then, I had to move again.
Take bigger steps since I hadn't moved for so long
But the hand wouldn't move
And as I pulled, pleaded and begged
It bruised my hand and just stood still
Perhaps it was the anger or the loss of hope
The darkness changed to light.. To clarity
No, it wasn’t a hand.
It was just a branch
It belonged to a tree
Not to me
