Here We GoA Poem by Steven HicksNow we begin One strand at a time Spinning the webs That trap my mind
What is it that binds Our friendships and love How can we fix the puzzle That we don't have all the pieces of
What of our anger What can validate The reason of our offense And the source of our hate
What strings that get broken, Can be reattached How can we allow the power of love, To be outmatched
To what ends Should we go How ar do we chase Those who say "no"
How do we know What is the right time How do we pull through The loss of each dime
When we leave our home To accomplish what we must How do we stay true With who do we place our trust
How do we know What to do When each choice Brings something entirely new
How do we pick Which direction to take When we're afraid what seems apparent Could be a fake
How do we step Out of the past To find a future That will prosper and last
Is anything inevitable Except our body's death How can we truly value Our every breath
How far should we plunge How deep should we dive To what lenghts should we go How hard should we strive
How much should we give To help another How can we show we care For our sisters and our brother
How can we find What we are destined to be Can anything answer all of this And make life easy
But there are many more questions Which only add to the complication Can anything in this universe Counter this sensation
I pray something ends this confusion And the pain brought by sadness God please hlep End this being's madness © 2008 Steven Hicks |
