Yesterday's Brilliance is gone
With the new dawn only darkness
No more does the sun shine on my soul
I am covered by the shadow of betrayal and pain
Such anger an hatred an I have never felt before
Ebbs The sorrow that has filled my life
My head aches with the realization of my plight
My body aches with fatigue
I am resolved to emerge from this place of agony
No more will the shadow of doom cover my door
I shall not emerge the same as before
My heart will always bear a scar
My face will show my strife
I can no longer believe that the sun shines on, regardless
I emerge a woman with more knowledge than I care to have
and harness a quality I did not want
That my heart be hardened by the harshness of life here
I must press on to find my place in the sun
That I may it's warmth and the power it trancends
Healing, Life sustaining, Loving
Restoring me to wholeness

" Goodbye, Cedric. I'll love you forever.
I'll like you for always. As long as I'm living.
My true love you'll be. "
