Joy

It is the calm water In the middle of an anxious sea Where heavy clouds part and the sunrise starts A fire in the deepest part of me So I let go and in this moment I can breathe The clumsy start of adolescence The glue that mends our broken remnants An overwhelming sense of reverence It's a glimpse of light in a mine of gold A silver lining spilling over The rumour of buried treasure The starting line of an adventure It's a glimpse of light in a mine of gold It's an afterglow, it's an echo Still ringing out in spite of me It's the faint outline of the divine In the hiding place of my periphery So I let go and in this moment, I can breathe I can breathe The setting sun through open windows The honouring of every shadow A gratitude for all that follows It's a glimpse of light in a mine of gold The countless stars we're sleeping under It's the brightest sparks that we remember When our eyes are closed, we still see embers A glimpse of light in a mine of gold It's a glimpse of light in mine of gold
