Running scared and blind down narrow paths
It's true that this high will never last
I climb to the top just to plummet to the ground
And on impact I go further down
Further than I've ever been before
Digging deeper until the bottom sucks me in
Falling flat, looking up and seeing no end, to the darkness I am in
a cavern I discovered deep inside the earth, I couldn't escape or find any of my self worth
My pit of pity and selfishness
Is a fitting grave, where I will serve a sentence in lonliness
Until one night, ideas of better days littered my mind
I held back tears and began to open my mind
It's insane how much your environment changes when you step out of the dark
Within the moonlight I saw where I really was, this cavern I'm trapped in
Is adorned with the most beautiful sparkling gemstones, sparkling within these dark walls of earth which hold me captive inside, later I realized that I didn't want to die
I observed the crystals, glistening in the light, and found a long path that took me out of the cavern on this night
I climbed and climbed along the moonlit glistening path, until I found myself above ground again, dare I ever look back?
I do, because the past is what teaches us to be better. Never forget who you were so you don't keep digging yourself deeper
Realize that your current situation does not define your forever, and the storms of yesterday are vital for better weather
