Sunshine

You think that I’m the sunshine
But that really isn’t true
The light you think comes from me
Really comes from you

You offered up your warmth
And lent to me your spark
You chased away the shadows
That kept me in the dark

You painted quite a picture
Held up so I could see
I saw another image
That others saw as me

I never was the darkness
There just were gradients
I only needed time to shine
And show my radiance

Never forget you lent me
The light to start it all
Without you I’d have never known
The light within to call
