Sunlight and Shadows

    Whatever you want, you want it so badly

    You pour in your heart so deeply, completely

    You hold on so tight, there is no room to breathe

    And keep your eyes shut so you can believe

    Whatever you want, you will not let go

    Or step back or look up or even walk slow

    Instead you dive in head first off the brink

    Need only to feel, never stopping to think

    Just look through that feeling, it colors your world

    A fantasy glamorized, glittered, and pearled

    Until life steals the rose glasses away

    Then every color that you see is gray

    Whatever you want, you better be sure

    For fancies fly quickly and failures endure

    But do not let go of hope that is real

    For faith lives beyond whatever you feel
