Sliver

Every day

A sliver of what made me happy seems to fade away

Just a trace

But something better finally is standing in its place

Every shape

I knew when I was younger seems to dissipate

With a rate

Accelerating violently until some final day

Leaving traces of your heart

Before the dawn

Before the dark

In a state

Of gratitude, serenity, I speak my name

Unafraid

Without a trace of bitterness of self-obsessive shame

'Cause there is peace inside the part of you that aches

A quiet dark inside the space that you retake

When you feel your pain and celebrate

There is peace inside the part of you that aches

A quiet dark inside the space that you retake

When you feel your pain and celebrate

'Cause there is peace inside the part of you that aches

A quiet dark inside the space that you retake

When you feel your pain and celebrate
