Beauty In The Deep

I still tread the ground where you once ravaged me

Still walk the paths where we met our demise

I still feel the scars that your carelessness left

My tongue still tastes the saltiness of the tears that I spent

I trudged through fields of doubt to regain self esteem

Dug through the memories, discarding things not for me

I found the peace I'd lost waiting by the willow tree

Flowing like droplets to a whirlpool of peace

But nothing’s as sweet as the first touch of sunlight

Nothing else reaches the depths of my soul

I never imagined I’d see the beauty in midnight

Never knew broken could make me feel whole
