A broken promise.
I took a long drive to lose myself
I found myself.
And got lost anyway.
I'm not where I'm supposed to be,
but the road is long,
My gas is on
Empty.
And so I walk,
A shadow of myself.
Hope
like rain
on desert lands
tenderness
to weathered hands
weeding through hardened soils
and toils shared
a smile
on wearied faces
a light in darkened places
and courage
through all that you have feared
hope stands
when all falls
hope
when that is all
you have left
Needling blue skies
into gray
