My constant companion

Based on all that was familiar,
Breaking away was necessary for me.

I was lost, without a place to call home, wandering.

Like a fool, dancing without music.

Without purpose, I danced and clapped my hands.

Without you, how will I be able to live? A tear came to my eye!

It seems that you are everywhere, but you cannot be found.

Then adversity struck hard, and I was forced to wake up by Your Hand.

I have found you, and I have found myself as well!

It is amazing how familiar everything has become.
