Awoken Truth

I've buried my pen and paper behind my past
They no longer served their purpose
I forgot what it was like
And yet I feel these strange emotions inside
I'm suddenly writing these words
When the days didn't use to be colorful
My heart woke up from a long slumber
And it is overwhelmed with happiness
You've unlocked the doors to my heart
You've turned the lights on
and brought the sun back to this life
But this bliss will not last a lifetime
For at the end of the day you are not with me
I'll wake up in the morning to realize I do not hold the key to yours
And the truth is not mine to own
I've never been brave enough to face the world
But your presence served my strength and comfort
I know the reality but somehow
the more I know the more I want you
And I can only blame myself for falling
As I close my eyes tonight
I cannot promise not to think of you
Because even when they're open
You're all I think about
They no longer served their purpose
I forgot what it was like
And yet I feel these strange emotions inside
I'm suddenly writing these words
When the days didn't use to be colorful
My heart woke up from a long slumber
And it is overwhelmed with happiness
You've unlocked the doors to my heart
You've turned the lights on
and brought the sun back to this life
But this bliss will not last a lifetime
For at the end of the day you are not with me
I'll wake up in the morning to realize I do not hold the key to yours
And the truth is not mine to own
I've never been brave enough to face the world
But your presence served my strength and comfort
I know the reality but somehow
the more I know the more I want you
And I can only blame myself for falling
As I close my eyes tonight
I cannot promise not to think of you
Because even when they're open
You're all I think about
