Hope

Hope

I can't take it,
Hope I make it,
This road is rough,
I'm the one who made it tough,
Why don't I listen,
Their words could make my life glisten,
My stubbornness has got to go,
If not, it's my life that I will blow,
My dreams were within my means,
I didn't reach high enough it seems,
I'm going to make that change, every little bit,
I want to make it!

hope is only as strong as the hoper....who can gain additional strength by a helping shoulder....a crutch or a backbone is what some will call it....if you don't believe me, just ask any alcoholic....lol
