The Few Things that Really Matter

There he sat
Haunted by a life that he never intended to live
Afraid that he would never understand
The few things that really matter

There he fought
Enveloped in a struggle not his own
Sorrounded by a darkness he couldn't overcome
Fighting for the few things that really matter

There he rose
Stronger than he was before
Shining through the darkness, because the darkness does not understand
The few things that really matter

There he goes
Determined to be something more
Holding on tightly
To the few things that really matter
