You Were Right

.

How can you still trust after all I have done?

How did I ever earn you forgiveness?

I have destroyed the only people you ever loved.

Through my greed and selfishness, I chose my own doom.

.

I never had the chance to see you grow up,

to hear your first words, and watch your first steps.

Now you stand before me, a grown man.

You are everything I thought you would be; everything I am not

.

Too long has the Darkness held me in her grip,

but you have reached out your hand, guiding me back into the light.

They said no one could return from the Darkness, they were all wrong.

There was good in me even after all those years.

.

It is as if a curtain has been lifted.

Slowly I drift toward the light

I see faces long forgotten

I am finally free.
