You Had me at Hello

You Had me at Hello

A Poem by Josh Anderson
"

Hello is the first start.

"
Hello God, I know it's been awhile 
I promise I'll try to talk to you again 
It's just so hard to wear this painted smile 
When I'm walking on a line so thin 

Hello pain, I know you're standing there 
Behind me everywhere I go 
When every step I take feels like a snare 
You're always there to make me feel alone 

Hello laughter, I know you're trying to get through 
Always trying to lift me up 
But the tears make it harder for me to find you 
And your voice isn't always enough 

Hello peace, come into my soul 
I was a fool to let you go 
But in the past I had a darker goal 
Forgive me Lord, I did not know
