Before you

And After you

Before you

Before you, I believed love existed only in fairy tales

After you, I hear it sung in the song of the nightingales

Before you, shadows followed me; I couldn’t find light

After you, endlessly smiling, you’ve made my world bright

Before you, sleep was a twisted labyrinth of nightmares

After you, sleep is a haven powered by your serene prayers

Before you, faith lost along broken promise avenue

After you, my sea of solace expontientally grew

Before you, sadness and loneliness were my disease

After you, the greatest gift, the power to believe

*Thank you for reading*
