a sudden bright blot of lightning flashed across the dark sky
illuminating it just for a split second
and then its all gone
and the darkness decends and engulfs us all.

its the same with emotions
you feel this sudden jolt of happiness
and then it disperses just as quickly as it appears
in the blink of an eye
and all thats left is the emptiness and darkness.

in life you can only see that bright light once
and only one can allow you to experience that same sense of jubilation
but you can never hold on to that one
cos together with the happiness comes the deepest of pains

it felt like i was home again
that there back where i truely belonged.
and i guess deep down inside i knew
i was home.
