In the deep shadows, I yearned to part, to join the night, to leave this heart.
But thoughts of deeds, both great and small,
They held me back from death’s dark call.
For a flame burnt in my soul.
A hunger for something I hadn’t earned.
The untried actions, the untrodden roads, they held my hand, that cold, dark sod.
Though darkness shouted my name, I stayed on course, rekindling hope’s little flame.
I choose to live, strive, and see for the delicious promise of life yet to come.
I found the strength to battle and triumph even when things looked bleak.
I’ll keep living, strong and true, for all the things I have yet to do.
