footprints in the earth.....
Crossing
In sweat I challenge the tide,
Of doubt buried in my mind,
To step on the other side,
This gap so long so wide
In dreams I have come close
To grasp what I cherish most,
It's in the words of a blessing
I must undertake the crossing
In reality I task and tarry,
Fulfillment requires a heavy PRICE
Joy is won in battle
Let courage prove it's mettle
In truth the war need not be bloody
The crossing is our own story
To succeed against all adds,
Therein lies the crossing.
Of doubt buried in my mind,
To step on the other side,
This gap so long so wide
In dreams I have come close
To grasp what I cherish most,
It's in the words of a blessing
I must undertake the crossing
In reality I task and tarry,
Fulfillment requires a heavy PRICE
Joy is won in battle
Let courage prove it's mettle
In truth the war need not be bloody
The crossing is our own story
To succeed against all adds,
Therein lies the crossing.
