Hope

I wish to reach the highest mountains 
And swim the ocean with no fear 
To fly so high, to reach the sky 
All the new things I wish to try

I was abandoned and left alone 
No stable home no love to share 
People I loved they long time gone 
Sometimes it's easy, just not to care

I let myself wonder sometimes 
And let my dreams take me away 
With you o God stay by my side 
I know I find a better way

I let myself wonder once more 
And dream about a million things 
To wonder far, far and beyond 
And spread my broken wings

I have to choose my path ahead 
With life, I have to cope 
Go through my life with head up high 
Believe, that there is hope

Elizabeth, there is hope, and I thank you for reminding me of this. I go through so much in life, and I have had a hard past, but like you quoted; "There is hope." Thanks for making me smile. This is a glorious write, and I love it! Love ya!
