Frustration brought me here
To my salvation
Not paradise
But as close
As I’ll ever be
Behind each word
I see another survivor
One who refuses
To ever give in
Who knows fire
Is inevitable
But who would rather
Go up in flames
Than burn out
Each time
Your pain floods me
Overflowing my heart
With salty tears
Your dreams
Give me my lost hope
Your music coinciding
With my own
A harmony of strangers
And each time
The symphony plays
I thank God
There are others
When the clouds came
I was not the only one
Without an umbrella
I am not the only one
I am not alone
Because your words
Saved me.
