My heart was dark and cold,
Scarred by hate and revenge,
Drowning in a sea of blood,
Haunted by a thousand fearful faces.
The light I tried to follow
Dimmed in my loneliness.
Rejecting the past, unsure of the future,
I was lost.
Then you came into my life,
Bringing an even brighter light.
Leading me with your innocent faith,
You've showed me the best part of myself,
Understood the dark parts of my soul,
Healing them with your love.
Each day I feel a little more free.
Free of the guilt and shame.
Finally, I'm able to let peace inside.
The peace I find in your trusting smile,
The truth in your gleaming eyes,
The comfort of your warm embrace.
Wherever I may go in this world,
I am home, for I am with you,
My Gabrielle.
