Hope

The road back from nowhere is much to long You'll find nothing right and everything wrong It scares me when you talk this way Not wanting to live another day Then laugh it off; again you will Unaware that I am fearful still It's not a joke, to want to die For who should know, better than I Some mistakes can always be changed Others even rearranged But life and death are planned that such One never hurts and the other too much Don’t give in - don’t be deceived For the life you’d end, can’t be replaced And the pain you’re in is just a phase Please reach out give hope a chance Life may be sad but it’s also a dance One in which we choose to partake One in which so much is at stake Though often dreams will come and go The strength they build will continue to grow Creating in you a special place Filled with joy and endless grace This life for you is meant to be I promise you this - for you once were me © Dorothy Carr
