Like a shadow of who I once was
I’ll walk along my empty shores
In the twilight hours of times before
Gathering empty shells of dreams
Left in the wake of ugly betrayals
That nearly drowned me repeatedly
I’ve stepped past the ghost of my hurt
That plagued me for too many years
Through my heart still feel the scars
That still hungers for- a love unfound
Where I can practice all, I’ve learned
To feel the warmth of love in my arms
While I’m clutched in her guiding hands
Teaching me to trust love… once again
