Place of Sorrow

I was there again in a place of sorrow,
Hoping there will not be tomorrow,
Wishing my life would end today,
And all my problems fade away.

And in the midst of the darkening night,
I see a speck of glimmering light.
The one I had not heard for so long,
Saying “I’ll support you through this storm”.

Shocked for me to receive help in hurry,
From a close companion who I thought would worry.
I thought this battle was me alone,
But I have a friend who’s on the phone.

And someone with me day and night,
Who really listens to my fight.
I hope that light grows brighter ‘till,
It’s brightness one and darkness nil.

Maybe you are struggling too,
With something that is holding you.
Get a friend along your side,
And let the bright light be your guide.
