Dream
Here I walk on my own
Down a road in my mind
Feeling friendless and cold as stone
Aiming nowhere like I’m blind
Not knowing what I will face
Feeling empty inside
Can’t stand life’s fast pace
Having nowhere to hide
I fall into an abyss
Of loathing and self pity
Everything in my life is amiss
I’m down to the nitty gritty
But then someone kind takes my hand
And takes the time to be a friend
Who shows me a new and exciting land
Now my soul is starting to mend
What once was dark
And hard to see
Is now a spark
Inside of me
And there is hope
And no more strife
I’m climbing up the rope
To a better life
Thank you to that someone
Who helped me when I was down
Now I feel I’ve won
It’s like wearing a crown
