It may be in a strangers smile or a hug from a friend, hope can be found anywhere.
The days are filled with darkness
The world is on my back
The demons forever chasing me
The cold wind is at my neck
I struggle to keep on breathing
I feel there is nowhere for me to turn
I hold a feeling of helplessness
I feel my heart is seeking death
Cold hands clamp down my hope
Cold feeling grasps my heart
Cold arms and legs are flailing
Cold ice had blocked me out
A new breath blows in my ear
A hand reaches out for mine
A smile is bestowed upon me
A light shines down on me
My mind begins to open
My eyes are opened wide
My smile begins to break
My heart once more can feel
A calm begins to settle
A wisdom now is felt
A glow begins to warm me up
A life begins again
Your hope has entered into me
Your smile has warmed my heart
Your prayers have lifted up my soul
Your song sings in my head
I thank you for your patience
I thank you for your praise
I thank you for your wisdom
I thank you for one more day.
