Assumed Control

In a cold, lonely place, where enters night, You stand alone and filled with fright. You hear the snicker, a devil’s delight, But, you’re truly not alone. Why you’re here, you do not know How you got here or how to go And therefore you tremble on, just so, Thinking of all you’ve done. Please remember, there exists a line Interwoven through epochs of time. It will prevent you from your heinous crime, So grab it, please take hold! Help and guidance is in the knowing Of your life, so prevalent, showing Like slides on a wall, you are growing To fight against this cold. Take the hand that forever awaits you. Though cold and lost, it won’t forsake you. The love that waits is just so true And for you, was always there. Reach through darkness, light is seen. You are only just a human being. You really are not all that mean We want to give you care. Maybe now you will see your reflection And it will move you in a different direction. Don’t be harsh upon your inflection, You have a beautiful soul. Let all who wait, give you their hands. From that place you’ll see other lands. Then your life will surely be grand. You have now assumed control.
