Meaning

There are times your heart is shattered

And your body cannot handle all that pain.

Lost is everything that mattered,

Gone forever, as a desert rain.

There are times your mind is drifting

Between nightmares of the past and now.

Illusions and reality are shifting.

You want to cope but you don't know how.

Because all the puzzle pieces of your soul

Are scattered, burnt, marred, buried.

You have one wish - to let the tears freely fall

And cry out all the poison that they carry.

But tears do not always cure.

Hot as lava they pierce your face.

You feel worse, darkness allures

You to give up to its infinite maze.

Just then, when you are about to dive

And, hopefully, drown in your smothering grief

There comes a hand that grabs you, reminds you of being alive.

Shaking your whole world, giving back the belief,

That you thought you lost along the way.

Some calming words, a warm hug or a simple gesture

Are all you need - this time, this moment, this day.

Soon you take the first step to your healing.

Then, the next, you can freely breathe again.

A smile comes one day - a gorgeous feeling.

You are reborn, it happened - you don't know how, you don't know when.

So, silver lining there must be for sure.

The sun must rise right after the rain.

For every pain there is a cure,

For every loss - a subtle gain.
