Lantern of Hope
A black dark place my heart used to be
Abused and torn as a child
Lonely and crying into womanhood
Until you
A lantern of hope and love
Arrived through the guidance of God
You cleaned off the dark dust of hatred and misery
Lovingly polished until the sadness and tears
Turned into rainbows and ribbons
A bright and happy heart I now have
My lantern of hope
My husband
My friend
