No Longer Afraid Of The Dark

 Eyes that shine with tears
Happy or sad - she's not sure
But as she looks to the hazy horizon
With wind in her hair,
The setting sun rosing her cheeks
As she closes her eyes,
That final tear rolls slowly  down her cheek 

She feels at peace now,
her heart is calm
the blood red sunset around her
Looking once more to the darkening horizon
As she lowers her head,
Her hair whipping her face
She knows what lies ahead,
The future, no longer dark
No longer afraid of the dark
