Hope Returns

Hope lost What a cost Too much pain Am I sane Is there a way out Alcohol sought A temporary solution To numb the confusion Another hangover Will this last forever Then a small glimmer Something inside starts to simmer Could it be lost hope Like opening an envelope It's contents a hand written letter Words assuring that I will get better A return address on the corner A name once quite familiar That one gone long ago There wanting me back to help me grow Amazing grace shown by You, Father Hope emerges, a divine encounter
