Pages
These words were written for you to read,
in hopes you find what you may need.
Yes, life is hard, I do agree.
we rise above the pain we see.
Like the pages in a book
one day, another, we look, we look.
To understand what we may see
we must allow the self to be.
For what we seek it is not far
within our reach our private star.
To find the peace inside we yearn,
we must from pain and sorrow learn.
Once we've learned we can disguard
the loss of trust that makes us hard.
We can not always set aside
confusion that is felt inside.
If we share the loss we feel
doubt and fear are not so real
I can not swear that I am right
To believe, for that I'll fight
We read the pages different ways
for what you've seen I can not say
I only pray before the end
you will allow your heart to mend.
