r.h Sin

Those in our lives carry lanterns
That light the way
Down the paths we find ourselves on.

But not all lights last that long.

Some exist, solely, for a second.

Others may burn for years, yet still fizzle out when the fire dies.

And I wanted so badly to be the light that guided you the most

To be the one beside you every step of the way
Until your journey was complete

But I see now there are lights that will be brighter
And hold your gaze longer
Until you’ve forgotten I’m even here

For it’s me who is blinded

Thinking I can be the one

To help you forget
About the darkness
