Here I walk along a path tainted with despair.
I look around for someone, but no one else is there.
On I go, heavy heart, and desperation in my eyes.
I try so hard to ignore the pain my heart does cry.
I stop and ponder where I am, and what has brought me here.
I also wonder why it is each day I live in fear.
For am I scared that another I will never find?
Or am I just a prisoner trapped deep inside my mind?
Just before I reach the brink, and cut my journey short.
I hear a soft sweet voice, which brings a stern retort.
A key she has to offer to free me from my mind.
And a better path she tells me she will help me find.
I take her hand and follow her in hopes of sweet salvation.
Is this what I needed, or is this more damnation?
At a time in my life when I am filled with questions.
I at least, to myself can offer this suggestion.
To keep my mind free and open as a burning candle.
And believe, that on my life, I finally have a handle
