I saw a light

Feedback Received!

I saw a light 

Through a doorway

And it was quite surprising.

_

And as I watched

it grew and flickered

Before suddenly dissolving

_

So naturally I explored

And found a version of myself

_

But a version I despised.

_

One that needs remaking

Or utter disintegration.

_

And as I watched and judged

I saw myself changing

Into who I want to be.

_

A frame that was appealing, 

A voice that was deceiving.

_

A version that would fit perfectly

With the lies of today.

_

Yet as I saw this, I wasn't satisfied.

Or at least the lie was not.

So I move to shield myself

From others' thoughts.

But before I act, I hear a quiet voice

One that worries, one that cares.

_

When I thought the world was nothing

But uncountable despairs.

_

And then I realize, I was changing.

But back to who I was, 

To who I'm meant to be.

_

And the only thing that changed

Is you're now next to me.

_

Then you speak,

And you tell me that this isn't real.

That this is just a dream.

_

And I look at you, and try to change

Into what you I know you wanted.

_

But then you stop me,

And let me know that

_

I am all you've ever wanted.
