The overwhelming feeling flows
From a heart which has not know what it is to glow
Too many a year has gone past
Where the heart has been so downcast
Scary now are the thoughts which rage through my mind
I don't know which way to turn,
Thought is taken over by soaring emotions
Taking me to heights of such happiness and laughter
To plunge, out of control into moments of doubt and blackness
On consideration
Perhaps I'd read the situation so wrong
I'm out of control!
Too many years I've traveled
A lonely achingly slow path
Strewn with sharp boulders
To catch the unwary hip
Stones cut the soles of my feet
As I tread my weary way
Pain and her sister Misery have been my constant companions
But now I've been shown another way
Suddenly there is sunlight
Suddenly Hope is at my elbow
But I dare not listen too well
To the words she speaks in my ear
Far too often I've been deceived before
I don't know if I can take any more
Dare I risk it?
Am I able to take any more disappointment
Will I be strong enough to carry myself through
If all else fails, I know I can count on you
You'll be stood there
To lift me from me weary blood smeared knees
Encourage me on in my lonely path of tears
To walk on with head held high
Walking towards a new horizon
A future filled with newness
Holding the vision.
A silvered moonlit horizon in view
Just this one last hill to climb?
Do I have the strength needed to reach its top
I don't know, but one thing I know I have to do
Is to catch my breath, one last time
Then onward I will go!
